Pourquoi les textes de la Gr�ce antique, d’Hom�re � Platon, continuent-ils d’influencer la culture europ�enne ? Quelle qualit� unique cet h�ritage si divers rec�le-t-il, qui justifie une pr�sence aussi vivace au cours des si�cles ? � ces questions, la grande hell�niste donne ici sa r�ponse. De fa�on constante et obstin�e, � travers la trag�die ou la science politique, la mythologie ou l’histoire, l’esprit grec cherche l’universel, ce qui concerne tout homme, en tous temps et en tous lieux. Chaque �tude de ce recueil aborde un exemple pr�cis, constituant ainsi une passionnante le�on, qui nous convie � d�couvrir ou red�couvrir cette culture d’un oeil neuf.

Dans un livre � son image, p�tillant, chaleureux, extraordinairement intelligent, Jacqueline de Romilly fait revivre Achille et Hector, Antigone et Prom�th�e, � travers les meilleurs passages de textes, offerts � notre �merveillement. Fran�oise Monier, L’Express.

Store Description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we?re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.
