Matthew Dillon has selected a series of telling extracts from Greek literature to provide an unforgettable picture of the customs and concerns, fears and ambitions, and the underlying values of the ancient Greeks. It is an intimate insight into a world separated from our own by hundreds of years." "The Greeks speak for themselves, both in the formal language of public office and in the colloquial speech of the household and the street.
