And we shall assuredly not be without
witnesses; the mighty monuments of our power make us the wonder
of this age and will make us the wonder of future ages.
Pericles
"The Ancient
Greeks are so significant that they demand to be studied in their own
right and not merely as forerunners of ourselves." "The Rise of The
Greeks," Michael Grant.
So, you don't study them to know the history of who we are;
you study them because of
what they are.
