The contribution of the Ancient Greeks to modern western culture is incalculable. In the worlds of art, architecture, myth, literature, and philosophy, the world we live in would be unrecognizably different without the formative influence of Ancient Greek models. Ancient Greek civilization was defined by the city - in Greek, the polis, from which we derive 'politics'. It is above all this feature of Greek civilization that has formed its most enduring legacy, spawning such key terms as aristocracy, oligarchy, tyranny and - last but by no means least - democracy. This stimulating Very Short Introduction to Ancient Greece takes the polis as its starting point. Paul Cartledge uses the history of eleven major Greek cities to illuminate the most important and informative themes in Ancient Greek history, from the first documented use of the Greek language around 1400 BCE, through the glories of the Classical and Hellenistic periods, to the foundation of the Byzantine empire in around CE 330. Covering everything from politics, trade, and travel to slavery, gender, religion, and philosophy, it provides the ideal concise introduction to the history and culture of this remarkable civilization that helped give birth to the world as we know it.

作為隻有百餘頁的簡明希臘史能有這樣大的廣度是值得稱贊的,按照傳統的希臘史敘事12個城邦恐怕就隻剩下一半瞭吧(剋諾索斯、邁锡尼、斯巴達、雅典、忒拜和敘拉古,亞曆山大裏亞?不存在的)。當然由於篇幅限製各個城邦都隻能點到為止,基本的史實框架似乎也有一點不太清楚,在VSI係列中不算特彆優秀的著作但也不必強求。
