This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Topics on Greek and Roman History, Intended for Use in Secondary Schools This list of topics is the result of many years' experience in teaching ancient history in classes preparing for college entrance examinations. From quite small beginnings the list has grown to its present form. The compiler has been assured that it would be of service to others engaged in the same work, or in the study of Greek history for any purpose. This is the only excuse for publishing. It is claimed for the list: 1. That it presents a full and systematic scheme for the study of Greek history by the topical method. 2. That it is adapted for use in accordance with the recommendations of the Conference Report in History in the Report of the Committee of Ten, and also of that of the report of the Conference on History made to the New England Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools in 1895, of the report of the University Conference on Uniform Entrance Requirements made in 1896, of the report of the Committee of Seven made in 1899, and with the latest entrance requirements adopted by our leading colleges. 3. That the references are ample and plain, but not so precise as to prevent the student from learning to find his own way in books of reference. The number of books referred to is large. The object is two-fold: (1) to broaden the student's view by the study of the same subject as presented by different writers; (2) to make it possible that those whose library resources are small shall nevertheless find some references of which they can avail themselves.

Download or read book Man State and Deity written by Victor Ehrenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1974, this book is a collection of nine essays written by Victor Ehrenberg between 1925 and 1967, five of which had not been published before. They deal with a number of aspects of Greek and Roman history, and with the nature of ancient history in the East and West. The first essay is a broad survey of interactions between opposing forces and ideas in the world as seen from the most ancient Near Eastern civilizations to the beginning of the western Middle Ages and the era of Byzantium; this is followed by discussions of topics from Classical and Hellenistic Greece and Republican and Imperial Rome, with the accent on the history of ideas and institutions –freedom, the Greek city-state, and Roman concepts of state and empire. The final chapter consists of personal reflections on the meaning of history from the writer’s own characteristic viewpoint, and is, as he admits, more in the way of a confession than pure scholarship.
Download or read book Literature in the Greek and Roman Worlds written by Oliver Taplin and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2000 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this book--its new perspective--is on the 'receivers' of literature: readers, spectators, and audiences. Twelve contributors, drawn from both sides of the Atlantic, explore the various and changing interactions between the makers of literature and their audiences or readers from the earliest Greek poetry to the end of the Roman empires in the Western and Eastern Mediterranean. From the heights of Athens to the hellenistic Greek diaspora, from the great Augustans to the irresistible tide of Christianity, the contributors deploy fresh insights to map out lively and provocative, yet accessible, surveys. They cover the kinds of literature which have shaped western culture--epic, lyric, tragedy, comedy, history, philosophy, rhetoric, epigram, elegy, pastoral, satire, biography, epistle, declamation, and panegyric. Who were the audiences, and why did they regard their literature as so important? --jacket.
