In Search of the Greeks

In Search of the Romans

James Renshaw

James Renshaw

Recommended Text for OCR & AQA Classical Civilisation GCSE

Recommended Text for OCR Classical Civilisation GCSE

In Search of the Greeks is a lively and informative introduction to the societies of Classical Greece. Making extensive use of ancient sources and illustrated with over a hundred photographs, drawings, maps and plans, this book introduces six key areas of ancient Greece: Greek religion, the Olympic Games, Athenian drama, Athenian society, Athenian democracy, and Sparta.

“Renshaw's work presents the history of Rome and its people in an accessible, student-friendly package. The language, although by no means simplistic, never becomes too technical and English translations always accompany Latin terms. He intersperses into the main body of the text a generous number of maps and images.... Both students and instructors will benefit from this text.” Bryn Mawr Classical Review

R.D. Williams

R.D. Williams

Recommended Text for OCR Classical Civilisation GCSE & OCR A-Level Classical Civilisation

Recommended Text for OCR Classical Civilisation GCSE & OCR A-Level Classical Civilisation

This text studies Virgil’s poems and the way they attempt to combine technical brilliance and beauty with profound meditation on the nature of imperialism and the relation of the individual to the State.

The Aeneid remains one of the most significant literary landmarks of Western Civilisation; in this book, its story and its poetic magnificence are outlined for the student coming to the poem for the first time.

This book sets the Aeneid in its historical literary background and shows how Virgil related his own world of the newly established Roman Empire to the experience of the past.
