Description

The Oxford History of Greece and the Hellenistic World By John Boardman, Jasper Griffin, and Oswyn Murray This comprehensive history covers the classical Greek world from the 8th to the 1st centuries BC, a period renowned for its literary, philosophical, and artistic achievements. The book also explores the Hellenization of the Middle East by the monarchies established after Alexander the Great's conquests. The editors have assembled thirty leading scholars to contribute to this volume, which combines chapters on political and social history with sections on literature, philosophy, and the arts. The work is reinforced by maps and historical charts, while hundreds of excellent illustrations provide a vivid window into classical heritage.
