Publisher: Strelbytskyy Multimedia Publishing
ISBN:
Category : History

Book Description
Most of what is known of the ancient world comes from the accounts of antiquity's own historians. Ancient history is the aggregate of past events from the beginning of writing and recorded human history and extending as far as post-classical history.

Primary sources are those sources closest to the origin of the information or idea under study.

This three-volume edition presents exactly such primary sources of classical antiquity historians. This volume contents: 1. Thucydides: The History of the Peloponnesian War 2.

On Sparta
Author: Plutarch
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 0141925507
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Plutarch's vivid and engaging portraits of the Spartans and their customs are a major source of our knowledge about the rise and fall of this remarkable Greek city-state between the sixth and third centuries BC. Through his Lives of Sparta's leaders and his recording of memorable Spartan Sayings he depicts a people who lived frugally and mastered their emotions in all aspects of life, who also disposed of unhealthy babies in a deep chasm, introduced a gruelling regime of military training for boys, and treated their serfs brutally. Rich in anecdote and detail, Plutarch's writing brings to life the personalities and achievements of Sparta with unparalleled flair and humanity.
