具体描述
The aim of this work is not a history of events but an account of the achievement and spirit of Greece. "Five hundred years before Christ in a little town on the far western border of the settled and civilizaed world, a strange new power was at work. . . . Athens had entered upon her brief and magnificent flowering of genius which so molded the world of mind and of spirit that our mind and spirit today are different. . . . What was then produced of art and of thought has never been surpasses and very rarely equalled, and the stamp of it is upon all the art and all the thought of the Western world."
A perennial favorite in many different editions, Edith Hamilton's best-selling The Greek Way captures the spirit and achievements of Greece in the fifth century B.C. A retired headmistress when she began her writing career in the 1930s, Hamilton immediately demonstrated a remarkable ability to bring the world of ancient Greece to life, introducing that world to the twentieth century. The New York Times called The Greek Way a "book of both cultural and critical importance."

评分作为古典学专家，汉密尔顿的《希腊精神》（The Greek way，直译就是《希腊方式》）应该是一本古希腊的简明读本，而《罗马精神》与《希腊精神及其回声》则可看作是希腊精神在不同地域、不同民族之间的传播与流变，以及虽然覆灭却被无数人怀念和称道的城邦。 中国人了解希腊，应...
评分要了解中国近现代文学及文化发展，很难不往西方找源头，而西方之源头便要追溯所谓“二希传统”，希腊和希伯来在汉密尔顿的书中分属于西方和东方的精神，当然所谓东方指的是近东一带，在《希腊的回声》最后一章她认为最终教会与罗马精神结合而就此跟希腊精神擦肩而过，“二希”...
评分人类文明史上，总会有一些犹如珠峰一般存在的问题，吸引着无数学者慕名前往，勇攀高峰。比如古希腊，它究竟是如何在短短几百年内发展出一种对后世影响深远的璀璨文化？作为现代人，我们真的是很好奇。实际上，对于古希腊的这种好奇在19世纪的欧洲学术界已经达到了一种“言必称...
评分何谓西方精神？Edith Hamilton在 the greek way（《希腊精神》）中给出的答案是 希腊。虽然她也撰写了 罗马精神，但相较而言，她认为希腊是更为纯粹的西方精神，而罗马已经加入了更多的东方王朝的元素。 何为希腊精神？汉密尔顿的书中选择了思想、艺术、文学、宗教、现世方式来...
