A unique reference book that offers one of the most comprehensive selections of Greek quotations ever committed to print. Organized alphabetically, with the original Greek followed by an accompanying English translation, it collects some 7,500 entries, ranging from the archaic period to late antiquity and across philosophy, drama, poetry, history, science and medicine. The book contains a full list of translators and of abbreviations, while its index of keywords enables the fast and efficient sourcing of each entry. This is a handbook designed for years of pleasure and profitable browsing. Many readers may find that the views expressed twenty centuries ago, and now helpfully contained between one set of covers, are as pertinent and provocative today as they were then.
