Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book establishes a new and groundbreaking history of ancient Athens via an innovative exploration of its archaeological remains and an analysis of over 200 ancient literary sources. The author argues that most previous interpretations of Athenian topography are fundamentally flawed and proposes an entirely new model for the city's layout, one based on a detailed examination of the surviving street plan, fortification walls, and public buildings. The book makes the case for a dramatic reassessment of Athens, arguing that many of the most visited sites are not where scholars have placed them. The book also provides a reconstruction of Athens' history from the late Bronze Age to the Roman era, with particular attention to significant historical events that shaped the urban layout. Beyond the historical and archaeological insights it provides, this book offers a fascinating perspective on the prominent role of Athens in Western civilization, especially its foundational impact on the development of democracy, philosophy and the arts. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
