Summary: | Wide-ranging in scope and rich in detail, the new edition of this well-known history offers a modern interpretation of Greek ideas, culture, and history, emphasizing military and political life, but also examining the intellectual, social, and economic background and the prehistoric period. Updated and revised, the third edition adds new material on the significance of the spread of tumulus-burial in Albania and the Mycenaean world, the dating of early coinage, the decree of Themistocles, and the rule of Alexander the Great. The work thoroughly documents its sources and directs readers to further studies in the field. |
