A perennial favourite, Edith Hamiltons best-selling The Greek Way captures with "Homeric power and simplicity" (The New York Times) the spirit of the golden age of Greece in the fifth century BC, the time of its highest achievements. She explores the Greek aesthetics of sculpture and writing and the lack of ornamentation in both. She examines the works of Homer, Pindar, Aeschylus, Sophocles, Aristophanes and Euripides, amongst others; the philosophy of Socrates and Plato's role in preserving it; the historical accounts by Herodotus and Thucydides on the Greek wars with Persia and Sparta and by Xenophon on civilised living.
