Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - From the time of the Roman Empire onwards, fifth- and fourth-century Greece have been held to be the period and place in which civilization as the West knows it developed. Classical scholars have sought to justify these claims in detail by describing developments in fields such as democratic politics, art, rationality, historiography, literature, philosophy, medicine and music, in which classical Greece has been held to have made a revolutionary contribution.

The volume will be of interest not only to classical scholars but to all who are interested in the history of scholarship.…
