  What was it like to live in ancient Greece? What is common to the Greek experience of life and our own? Sir Kenneth Dover offers answers that challenge some long-held views about ancient Greek civilization. Sir Kenneth examines the Greek approach to history, poetry, art, and philosophy, showing not only that their contribution has left its mark for ever on these fields of human endeavour, but also that their legacy is still vital and fundamental to the contemporary world.
