Product Information

A sweeping history of the Greeks, from the Bronze Age to today More than two thousand years ago, the Greek city-states, led by Athens and Sparta, laid the foundation for much of modern science, the arts, politics, and law. But the influence of the Greeks did not end with the rise and fall of this classical civilization. As historian Roderick Beaton illustrates, over three millennia Greek speakers produced a series of civilizations that were rooted in southeastern Europe but again and again ranged widely across the globe. In The Greeks , Beatontraces this history from the Bronze Age Mycenaeans who built powerful fortresses at home and strong trade routes abroad, to the dramatic Eurasian conquests of Alexander the Great, to the pious Byzantines who sought to export Christianity worldwide, to today's Greek diaspora, which flourishes on five continents.The product of decades of research,this is the story of the Greeks and their global impact told as never before.

Reviews
"It is difficult to imagine another anglophone scholar who could have taken on such a project alone, in a single book, and with such superb results.... To write a book on this scale is an act of both intellectual daring and generosity, and it is testimony to Beaton's craft as historian and storyteller that so sizeable a work might still leave one wanting more."-- Times Literary Supplement, "A monumental, sweeping history of the Greeks covering more than three thousand years right up to the present day. Authoritative, compelling, and beautifully written. A wonderful book."-- Peter Frankopan, author of The Silk Roads, "Roderick Beaton has given us a wonderful big picture of the Greeks, with a very generous cross-cultural, temporal, and geographical sweep. At the same time, the book's solid detail and careful distinctions--for example, between the Platonic and the Christian vocabulary for "virtue"--should help in discouraging political exploitation of stilted, anachronistic ideas about Greek civilization."-- Sarah Ruden, translator and author of Paul Among the People, "Over three millennia, the locus of the Greek spirit has shifted perpetually. In antiquity it darted about between the cities, harbors, and mountain valleys of the east Mediterranean, moving eventually through the swathes of North Africa, the Levant and southwest Asia where Alexander and his successors held sway. In modern times, it has flowed between the footloose global diaspora and the two volatile states which embody Greekness. In a tour de force, Roderick Beaton has managed to tie this story together in a single compelling narrative, written with deep affection and hard-earned knowledge of all things Greek."-- Bruce Clark, author of Athens: A History, Roderick Beaton's The Greeks: A Global History could have been subtitled 'Becoming Greek,' a phrase that weaves throughout its 466 pages (not counting full-color illustrations, maps, notes and index.) 'Hellenism' means exactly that. ...This volume, written for a lay audience and wearing its learning lightly, is more ambitious, a complete 'reorienting' of Western history.-- Wall Street Journal, "A remarkable and readable book: this single, masterful volume lays out the entire thirty-five-century history of the Greek-speaking peoples. From Minoan to modern times, their triumphs, their tragedies, and above all their endurance are all here. For anyone who wants to understand Greece today, this is the place to start."-- Ian Morris, author of Why the West Rules--For Now
