Roots of Ancient Greek Civilization : The Influence of Old Europe, Paperback / softback Book

Roots of Ancient Greek Civilization : The Influence of Old Europe Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Contrary to a prevalent belief of the Western world, that democracy, agriculture, theatre and the arts were the attainments of Classical Greek civilisation, these were actually a Bronze Age fusion of earlier European concepts and Hellenic ingenuity.

This work considers both the multicultural wellspring from which these ideas flowed and their ready assimilation by the Greeks, who embraced these hallmarks of civilisation, and refined them to the level of sophistication that defines classical antiquity.
