Lavishly illustrated survey of the history, important personalities, daily life, culture, religion, and achievements of the ancient Roman Empire
Moses Hadas fu un insegnante americano e uno dei principali studiosi classici del XX secolo. Combinò la sua vasta conoscenza delle lingue con un impulso divulgativo per sfidare i metodi classici prevalenti incentrati sulla critica testuale e sulla grammatica. Hadas presentò le opere classiche, anche in traduzione, come arte letteraria degna di studio. Il suo approccio, simile alla New Criticism, fu utilizzato anche in televisione e radio, rendendo la letteratura classica accessibile a un pubblico più ampio.






Lavishly illustrated survey of the history, important personalities, daily life, culture, religion, and achievements of the ancient Roman Empire
Carefully surveys the Greek literary experience of fifteen hundred years.
A survey of classical literature and books and other tools to better understand the period.
The miracle of Greece is not single but first the unrivaled rapidity and variety and quality of its achievement, and then its success in permeating and imposing its values upon alien civilizations. What combination of factors gave rise to the first we can only speculate; for the second we have tangible evidence. In this book, Moses Hadas sets forth and illustrates some of the ways in which Greek modes of thought, Greek taste, and Greek ideals became part of the continuing European heritage.

Das Wunder Griechenlands ist nicht einzigartig, sondern zunächst die unvergleichliche Schnelligkeit, Vielfalt und Qualität seiner Errungenschaften und dann sein Erfolg, seine Werte auf fremde Zivilisationen zu übertragen und durchzusetzen. In diesem Buch legt Moses Hadas einige der Wege dar und veranschaulicht, wie griechische Denkweisen, griechischer Geschmack und griechische Ideale Teil des fortdauernden europäischen Erbes wurden.
