A short history of Ancient Greece

Rhodes, P. J. (Peter John)2014
Books
Classical Greece and its legacy have long inspired a powerful and passionate fascination. The civilization that bequeathed to later ages drama and democracy, Homer and heroism, myth and Mycenae and the Delphic Oracle and the Olympic Games has, perhaps more than any other, helped shape the intellectual contours of the modern world. P J Rhodes is among the most distinguished historians of antiquity. In this survey he explores the archaic (8th-early 5th centuries BCE), classical (5th and 4th centuries BCE) and Hellenistic (late 4th-mid-2nd centuries BCE) periods up to the beginning of Roman hegemony.
