What is Greece : History and Treasures of an Ancient Civilization about?

EUROPEAN HISTORY (IE OTHER THAN BRITAIN & IRELAND). This book offers the thoughtful reader a comprehensive and up-to-date overview- including the most recent historical and archaeological research findings ? of the most important roots and cultural wellsprings of the modern Western world. The narrative starts with the birth of the polis ? the city ? on both conceptual and institutional level. It examines Greek history from the Archaic to the Classical period and Hellenism, culminating with the loss of Greek political identity under Roman rule. Politics, social issues, science, philosophy and the arts provide an ideal gauge for the rich complexity of the Greek historical experience, and the book explores the choices and challenges that these elements offered the ancient Greeks. The author also considers the role of the effects, borrowings, influences, derivations and intermingling of other cultures in shaping the Greek achievement. The story of this achievement and experience
