具體描述
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."

評分希腊文化与哲学的一本书，偏理论，若不是感兴趣很难读完。读完印象最深的，也是对当代人最有警示意义的，是刻在德尔菲神殿上的两条格言：“认识你自己”和“凡事勿过度”。希腊精神是一种追求理智与精神的平衡。希腊人寻求真理，并把寻求真理当作生命中最重要的事。热爱理性，...
評分有一种现象被称作“孕妇效应”。意思是说一个孕妇会觉得到处都是孕妇，其实客观上孕妇并没有增加，只不过孕妇自己对其他孕妇的关注度增加了。换句话说就是偶然的因素随着自己关注度的提高就感觉成了普遍现象。我当然不是想探讨“孕妇效应”，主要是我也进入了这种状...
