Was Greek Thought Religious?: On the Use and Abuse of Hellenism, from Rome to Romanticism Paperback - 2002 - 1st Edition

by L. Ruprecht


From the publisher

The Greeks are on trial. They have been for generations, if not millennia, from Rome in the First century, to Romanticism in the Nineteenth. We debate the place of the Greeks in the university curriculum, in New World culture - we even debate the place of the Greeks in the European Union. This book notices the lingering and half-hidden presence of the Greeks in some strange places - everywhere from the U.S. Supreme Court to the Modern Olympic Games - and in doing so makes an important new contribution to a very old debate.

First line

The U S. Supreme Court has been much in the news in recent years "Court watchers" are a permanent fixtures at most major news organizations, and Court decisions have become the stuff of dinner-table conversation The High Court has been asked to serve the very complex.
