Articoli correlati a The Bluffer's Guide To The Classics
Most people believe that it is to the Classical world that we owe Democracy and her handmaidens, Peace, Brotherhood, the Common Agricultural Policy and the IMF. Bluffers know better. Neither the Greeks nor the Romans knew anything about Democracy at all. The only occasion on which anything like it occurred in the Classical world was for 20-30 years in Athens and, apart from producing the Parthenon, that was a disaster.

L'autore:
Ross Leckie caught on to the Classics in ad 1962 at the precocious age of five. Ostracised to a school in the wilds of Scotland, he soon realized that little competition in the Classics meant much opportunity. He studied at Oxford University and to avoid such questions as 'Do you mean modern Greek?' he has variously farmed, taught, roughnecked, engaged in politics and written the award-winning historical novel Hannibal now a major Hollywood epic.
