The Greeks - Robin (University of Stirling Sowerby - Bog

The Greeks is a concise yet wide-ranging introduction to the culture of ancient Greece. In this new and expanded third edition the volume offers a lucid survey that covers all the key elements of ancient Greek civilization from the age of Homer to the Hellenistic period. The new edition has expanded coverage of the post Classical period with major expansions in the areas of Hellenistic history, literature and philosophy. More emphasis is placed on the Greek world as a whole, especially on Sparta, and the focus on social history has been increased.
