However, narratives about the "civilized" Greek and Roman empires resisting the barbarians at the gate are far from accurate. Tony Spawforth, an esteemed scholar, author, and media contributor, follows the thread of civilization through more than six millennia of history. His story reveals that Greek and Roman civilization, to varying degrees, was supremely and surprisingly receptive to external influences, particularly from the East.   From the rise of the Mycenaean world of the sixteenth century B.C., Spawforth traces a path through the ancient Aegean to the zenith of the Hellenic state and the rise of the Roman empire, the coming of Christianity and the consequences of the first caliphate. Deeply informed, provocative, and entirely fresh, this is the first and only accessible work that tells the extraordinary story of the classical world in its entirety.HISTORY / CivilizationbisacshRomeCivilizationGreeceCivilizationTo 146 B.CHISTORY / Civilization.937NH 5050SEPArvkSpawforth Antony253464MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812429203321The story of Greece and Rome4110188UNINA01714nam 2200529 a 450 991080791570332120230725015335.01-60780-236-8(CKB)2560000000010852(EBL)536169(OCoLC)645095845(SSID)ssj0000673517(PQKBManifestationID)11402924(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000673517(PQKBWorkID)10644387(PQKB)10798905(OCoLC)712990017(MiAaPQ)EBC536169(Au-PeEL)EBL536169(CaPaEBR)ebr10389282(EXLCZ)99256000000001085220150403h20101993 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrPanama[electronic resource] ;women in culture, business, & travel /World Trade Press2nd ed.Petaluma, Calif.

The Song of Songs is featured alongside the prophetic voices of Amos, Hosea and Isaiah, and essays on the Binding of Isaac and on the book of Ruth. Throughout, the emphasis throughout is on the subversiveness, richness and ambiguity of the text, but above all its (often enigmatic) beauty. The thread of psychoanalysis and its metaphorical technique draws together this collection from one of the Bible's most sensitive and distinctive literary critics.Journal for the study of the Old Testament.Supplement series ;312.Hebrew poetryHistory and criticismHebrew poetry, BiblicalHistory and criticismHebrew poetryHistory and criticism.Hebrew poetry, BiblicalHistory and criticism.221.66Landy Francis1672155MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824646103321Beauty and the enigma4035252UNINA
