Krátky popis
A compelling account of the continuing legacy of Greek writers and
thinkers in the age of Rome. In 146 BC, Greece yielded to the
military might of the Roman Republic, sixty years later, when
Athens and other Greek city-states rebelled against Rome, the
general Lucius Cornelius Sulla destroyed the city of Socrates and
Plato, laying waste to the famous Academy where Aristotle had
studied. However, the heterogeneous traditions of Greek cultural
life would continue to flourish in the centuries of Roman rule that
followed, in the work of thinkers and scholars such as the
historian Plutarch, the geographer Ptolemy, the physician Galen,
the philosopher Plotinus and the mathematician Hypatia.Charles
Freeman tells the story of a vibrant, constantly evolving tradition
of intellectual inquiry across a period of more than five hundred
years – one that would shape the intellectual landscape of the
Middle Ages and beyond.
