The book explores the complexities of the ancient Greek literary canon, challenging the notion of a unified set of timeless values. Reviel Netz posits that the canon consists of contradictory texts, which fostered a culture of open debate crucial to the development of modern civil society. This discourse not only shaped philosophical thought but also laid the groundwork for an autonomous scientific culture, ultimately influencing the scientific revolution and the contemporary world. It is a compelling read for those interested in the ancient world's impact on modernity.
