Greek as a treat: an introduction to the classics

Trama

We can get through life nowadays without Greek. Yet, as Peter France argues, we are missing out on the best of it. Shakespeare, Byron, Shelley, Dr. Johnson and Winston Churchill are unlikely to all have been wrong. In this exhilarating book he explores, theme by theme, the amazing world of the ancient Greeks.
