Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the concept of peace within ancient Hellas through the analysis of epic poetry and the works of Hesiod. The author explores how the glorification of war and violence in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey coexisted with expressions of longing for peace and the horrors of conflict. This tension reflects the broader societal changes occurring in Greece at the time, as the Mycenean civilization gave way to the rise of city-states and more settled forms of life. The author also examines how Hesiod's writings articulated the concerns of ordinary people, whose lives were shaped by the harsh realities of agricultural existence and the ever-present threat of warfare. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the complex and multifaceted nature of peace and war in ancient Greece, revealing the ways in which these concepts were shaped by both the heroic ideals of the aristocracy and the everyday experiences of the common people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333182557_0
