Ιστορία της Αρχαίας Ελληνικής Λογοτεχνίας

by Murray Gilbert (Creator)

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

[Illiterate · Rating 3 out of 5]

Murray treats the Greeks more historically and less as a unified aesthetic ideal than had earlier nineteenth century classicists. A good overview that has aged well.

Eminently readable, especially for a book written over 120 years ago. Packed with information and light reading (as light as Greek lit can be). As a non expert , not sure whether the info are outdated. But stuff like homer was probably not a single poet and that he was blind, those things still hold true.

I am a sucker for late 19th, and early 20th, century Brtish mythography. they made better mythographers than historians.

Een zeer goed gedocumenteerde geschiedenis over het ontstaan en de ontwikkeling van de literatuur in het antieke Griekenland, van lang voor Homeros, via de tragedie- en komedieschrijvers tot en met de filosofen en de declamatoren. Hoewel zowat een eeuw oud blijft het een standaardwerk voor al die zich in de Griekse literatuur wil verdiepen.
