Perceptions of the Ancient Greeks. - DOVER, K.J., (ed.),
KORTE INHOUD
'This is an ambitious and successful collection of essays whose advertised intention is to trace not the actual influence of the ancient Greeks on the culture and arts of later ages, but the way those ages looked at ancient Greece.' (...) it presents not just ways in which the past has been seen but ways in which it has been used. Each chapter gives an account of how a particular age or culture entered in to a more of less creative dialogue with what remained of ancient Greece or what was thought to be relevant. (...) It is an original, illuminating and learned snapshot of a remarkable range of scholarship on a perennial theme.' (J.V. MUIR in The Classical Review (New Series), 1994, 189-90). With contributions from K.J. DOVER, A. GARZYA, C. SIRAT, J.N. MATTOCK, A.C. DIONISOTTI, P. BURKE, R. ZUBER, J. WOHLLEBEN, C.Th. DIMARAS, and A. GRAFTON.
