  • A brilliant interpretation of the enduring relevance of classical Greek and Roman culture to our contemporary age.
  • Argues that it is vital to study classical culture not only because it enables us to understand our past and the values that have shaped Western civilization, but also because it helps us to understand other cultures which don’t necessarily share the same past and the same values. In our contemporary global age, understanding the classical is more important than ever.
  • Written by one of the world’s leading classical scholars and art historians.
