Great Works of Ancient Greece: From the Heroic to the Classical Age

This collection of ancient writings is intended to expose students to the original voices of the past in \u27primary source\u27 form. Unlike the historian who summarizes Aristotle\u27s \u27Ethics of Happiness\u27, the primary sources herein give us Artistotle himself - his exact words as they appeared when he etched them into papyrus in the 4th century BC. Because a reading proficiency in the ancient languages is not expected of undergraduate students in the Humanities, the ancient texts translated into English here have been carefully chosen by the author based ib their affinity to the original text and their adherence to the true spirit of primary source translation. --back of book jacke
