Recenzje

'This latest book forms one of a series of short presentations of aspects of archaic and classical Greece ... It is the shortest, the most personal and polemical of the group. The themes of the book are important, and the subject of much current debate among ancient historians ... The enterprise is interesting and constantly provokes agreement or reflection.'
