The purpose of the conference was twofold: first, to strengthen our appreciation of the Classical and Byzantine past of Greece; and, second, to help us develop a better understanding of the post-Byzantine and Neohellenic epochs of Greek civilization. Considerable attention was given to post-Byzantine and Neohellenic periods since I believe that although much is known and has been written about the ancient and Byzantine epochs, the post-Byzantine and Neohellenic periods have not been given the proper attention by Greek and non-Greek scholars. The post-Byzantine era is, I believe, very important to the understanding of the modern Greek period which is important for its own accomplishments. The papers read at the conference, in addition to the essay of Sir Edward Peck, are printed in this volume. This volume, therefore, is not a history of Greece, but a collection of essays covering different aspects in the history of Greece. The essays explore aspects covering the ancient, Byzantine, post-Byzantine, and Neohellenic epochs in Greek history. Any conference bringing together scholars from different disciplines and centering upon a country whose history is as long and distinguished as that of Greece hazards having papers which may be Interesting and even distinguished but not coherent. This hazard, I believe, was successfully avoided. Despite the disparate approaches, the lectures proved complementary rather than separate, leading into each other in terms of both chronology and analysis. The literary analysis contained much history; the historical ones relied upon literary and anthropological insights; and the anthropological one used historical data. The total effect was one of successful integration. ISBN 0819111082 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 1172141
