Condición: Sehr gut. XVI, 432 p., ill., maps. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Slightly stained binding, otherwise very good and clean. / Leicht angeschmutzter Einband, sonst sehr gut und sauber. - Modern western society owes its present identity to the ideas and experience of a Greek civilization which ended nearly two thousand years ago. Such is the argument of The Promise of the West, a wide-ranging, original exploration of the past and its legacy. Alan Samuel shows how certain Hellenic views of man and his relationship with society have so determined western civilization and culture as to control their development through the intervening centuries, providing not only the ideological foundations of our society but its very structure as we know it today. Professor Samuel traces Hellenic ideology through a millennium of Greek history and culture. He describes the historical events which provided stimuli to the development of these beliefs and values, extending his scope to show how they were further shaped by their contact with Roman, Jewish, and other civilizations of the Mediterranean basin, eventually to be carried forward by the emerging Christianity. Discussing too the ideas and works of the major writers and philosophers from Homer to Plutarch, he weaves a rich tapestry of political, social and intellectual history in the ancient world. The ancient experience emerges not only as an explanation of the current state of western civilization, but also as a pointer for the direction which it will take in the future if its promise is to be fulfilled. - Alan E. Samuel is Professor of Greek and Roman History at the University of Toronto. ISBN 9780415002745 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 1081 Original cloth with dust jacket in additional plastic.
