The Greeks. From the BBC television series by Chr. Burstall and K. Dover. - DOVER, K.,
KORTE INHOUD
?The Greeks? by Kenneth Dover is a witty, whimsical, and informative niew of Greek civilization that was based on a four-part BBC television series on that subject, which he helped to produce. The author, whose learning is immense, has been able to distill his knowledge to give us a view of the Greeks that is both unexpected and reasonable. Combining history with art, architecture, literature, and philosophy, he presents us with a people who were willing to raise questions but who, above all, had a good sense. ?The Greeks? is a judicious mix of history and personal observation. Since the work is based on a television series, it is clear and readable, reinforced by the author?s carefully considered views and illuminated by splendid and unusual illustrations.? (A.W. GODFREY in The History Teacher, 1982, p. 578-79).
