Filled w/ both essay-length articles & short quick-reference entries, this meticulously detailed volume breathes life into the people, places, & events that shaped the development of classical civilization. Readers will learn that the grand army of Alexander the Great consisted of 48,500 soldiers & was the largest ever to leave Greek soil, that the white facades of refined Ionic & Doric structures in Greece were once washed in vibrant reds & blues, & that the Theodosian Code, a collection of Roman law published in AD 438, still survives today. Here are examinations of the lives & works of great philosophers & literary figures, such as Aristotle, Plato, Socrates, Sophocles, Seneca, Aeschylus & the poets Ovid & Sappho. Mythology & religion were integral parts of classical civilization, & from Aphrodite & Hermes to funerary rites & sacrifice, they are integral parts of this volume as well. Whether searching for the birth date of Julius Caesar or the location of Cyprus, the ancient Roman method of navigation or the ancient Greek method of glass production, readers will find that this extraordinarily thorough yet accessibly written book is a treasury of information on classical civilization. Arranged alphabetically, fully cross-referenced & graced w/ a beautiful selection of full-color plates, "The Oxford Companion to Classical Civilization" has become an essential resource for anyone interested in learning more about the cradle of western civilization. * ABOUT THE EDITORS: Professor of Classics & Ancient History at University College, London, Simon Hornblower is the author (among other works) of "The Greek World" & is co-editor of "The Oxford Classical Dictionary".
