Omschrijving

ANCIENT GREECE: AN ILLUSTRATED HISTORY

A comprehensive encyclopedia with 1000 photographs

An authoritative account of Greek military and political power, architecture, sculpture and art, drama and philosophy, and their lasting influence on Western culture.

- Tells the myths and legends of the Olympian gods, including Zeus, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Poseidon, Hermes, Ares, Aphrodite, Eros, Hephaestus and Dionysus.

- Accounts of temples, palaces and archaeological sites display the influence of classical Greece on the birth of Western civilization, architecture and art.

- Battleplans and maps help chart the military history of the rise and fall of ancient Greece, including ancient rivalry between Athens and Sparta, the Persian Wars and the campaigns of Alexander the Great.

The legacy of the ancient Greeks has shaped our world. Classical Greece's military prowess, political sophistication and cultural innovations continue to influence modern society.

The first half of the book focuses on political and military history, from Mycenae and the Golden Age of Athens to the campaigns of Alexander the Great.

The second half concerns ancient Greece's buildings, sculptures, mythology and dramas, including the Parthenon, the Erechtheum and the works of Aristophanes and Euripides.

This is an outstanding exploration of the world of the ancient Greeks and an indispensable resource for both the general and specialist reader.
