Alois Riegl´s Die Entstehung der Barockkunst in Rom, published posthumously by Arthur Burda and Max Max Dvořák in 1908, is the last of Riegl´s major works, which was translated into English. This was achieved by Andrew Hopkins and Arnold Witte in a volume of the Getty Research Institute Publications Program in 2010. The volume also includes three introductory essays by the editors themselves and Alina Payne on Riegl´s notions on the Baroque, its position in historiography and the editorial history of the original book, and it is added by a detailed bibliography of Riegl´s publications and the wide-ranging secondary literature as well as a useful glossary of the German terms essential to Riegl´s theory of art history and their explanation in English.
