This book is about much more than 'the glory that was Greece'. Each of the fourteen distinguished contributors describes a particular aspect of Greek culture, and then shows what later generations have made of this valuable inheritance. The result is a lucid and down-to-earth introduction to how the ancient Greeks lived and thought, and to their influence on the world today. Topics covered include politics, literature, history, education, philosophy, science, myth, and art and architecture.
