Paperback. Condition: Like new. Like new softcover in printed wraps. 8vo. (9.5 x 1 x 5 inches) Clean text free of marks or underlining. Includes abbreviations and an index. 440 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. This is a handbook to the main topics of Greek history in the classical period. It deals not only with the established areas of political history, but also with some of the most important aspects of Greek social history, a subject which is winning increasing recognition. Modern syllabuses require students to be able to handle original source material. This book sets out in detail the Greek evidence, with a full set of references. It also seeks to meet a long-felt need of students, by showing explicitly many of the techniques of criticism and reconstruction which historians apply to the ancient source material. Principles of psychology, ancient and modern, are outlined. While critical in spirit throughout, the book tries to communicate the author's respect for Greek intelligence. The need for close study of the leading Greek thinkers has long been understood. This book seeks to illustrate the practical wisdom and cunning of the chief Greek communities, Athens and Sparta.
