What is The Routledge History of the Ancient World Robin Osborne Greece in the Making 1200 469 B C 2009 about?
Covering Greek History From The Bronze Age To The Classical Period, This Second Edition Offers A Narrative Based On Contemporary Archaeological And Art Historical Evidence Rather Than On Later Written Accounts. Sections On Economic History, Gender And Sexuality Have Been Considerably Enhanced, With Other Sections Greatly Revised. Greece In The Making 1200-479 Bc Is An Accessible And Comprehensive Account Of Greek History From The End Of The Bronze Age To The Classical Period. The First Edition Of This Book Broke New Ground By Acknowledging That, Barring A Small Number Of Archaic Poems And Inscriptions, The Majority Of Our Literary Evidence For Archaic Greece Reported Only What Later Writers Wanted To Tell, And So Was Subject To Systematic Selection And Distortion. This Book Offers A Narrative Which Acknowledges The Later Traditions, As Traditions, But Insists That We Must Primarily Confront The Contemporary Evidence, Which Is In Large Part Archaeological And Art Historical, And Must Make Sense Of It In Its Own Terms. In This Second Edition, As Well As Updating The Text To Take Account Of Recent Scholarship And Re-ordering, Robin Osborne Has Addressed More Explicitly The Weaknesses
