Résumé:
How did a diverse and often opposing group of city-states create a culture whose influence has reverberated across millennia? Exploring ancient Greece through its monuments—from the Parthenon in Athens to the sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi and the Temple of Zeus at Olympia— classicist David Stuttard reveals the values that united the disparate Greek world and made their mark on history. New digital reconstructions bring ancient Greece to life via buildings and monuments that still survive and can be visited today. "Ancient Greece in fifty monuments" takes readers on a visual tour of these monuments to explore Greek identity and how leaders and states used their buildings to project power or piety; to celebrate the arts and sport; and to communicate contemporary values to future generations.
