The Influence of Sea Power on Ancient History
ISBN: 9780195056679 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Alfred Thayer Mahan's nineteenth-century classic, The Influence of Sea Power Upon History, has long occupied a central place in the canon of strategic thought. But as Chester G. Starr shows in this thought-provoking work, Mahan's theories have also led to serious misperceptions among historians about the significance of naval superiority in antiquity. This analytical study of the role of sea power from the second millennium B.C. to the end of the Roman Empire illustrates both the utility and the limitations of naval power. Focusing on Athens and Carthage, Starr demonstrates that...

Individual and Community: The Rise of the Polis 800-500 B.C.
ISBN: 9780195039719 / Angielski / Twarda / 1986 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the three centuries from 800 to 500 B.C., the Greek world evolved from a primitive society--both culturally and economically--to one whose artistic products dominated all Mediterranean markets, supported by a wide overseas trade. In the following two centuries came the literary, philosophical, and artistic masterpieces of the classic area. Vital to this advance was the development of the polis, a collective institution in which citizens had rights as well as duties under the rule of law, a system hitherto unknown in human history. In this study, the first systematic exploration of the...

The Origins of Greek Civilization: 1100-650 B.C.
ISBN: 9780393307795 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 438 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. When the great citadel of Mycenae, then the center of the Aegean world, went up in flames about 1100 B.C., what followed was a "dark age" that left no written records. But rich archaeological records show conclusively that there was a radical discontinuity between Mycenaean-Minoan culture and Greek civilization. Chester G. Starr argues that true Greek civilization was swiftly and spontaneously generated in a remarkably autonomous renaissance during the two centuries from 850 to 650 B.C. Supporting his thesis with archaeological evidence previously unavailable to historians, he offers a...
