Abstract
With the notable exceptions of Jan Bazˇant and Paul Harvey, most scholars subscribe to the idea that the representational scenes on Greek vases fall into one of two main categories: either myth (including epic subjects) or "genre," whose frame of reference is everyday life. This article challenges this distinction and makes a plea for its abandonment.
