Description & Specifications

The ancient Greeks invented democracy, theater, scientific reasoning, and philosophy. All this success coexisted with the construction of the Parthenon and the Library of Alexandria. However, this talented people never formed a single social or political identity. In the work Introducing the Ancient Greeks, the esteemed classicist Edith Hall offers a bold synthesis of 2,000 years of Greek history, demonstrating how the ancient Greeks were the right people, at the right time, to lead the charge of human progress. Hall depicts a uniquely rebellious, exploratory, and individualistic people, whose ideas and creations continue to fascinate thinkers centuries after the conquest of the Greek world by Rome. These are the Greeks as you've never seen them before.
