SYNOPSIS: From the great monuments of antiquity, we can tell something of the "glory that was Greece, and the grandeur that was Rome." But while we may marvel at the Parthenon or the Roman aqueducts, what do we know about the daily lives of the people who designed and built them? What did they eat and wear? How did they furnish and light their houses? How did they fill their leisure hours? What was expected of women? What actually went on in the amphitheatres, gymnasia, stadia and baths? The two German professors, Guhl and Koner, who set about answering these and many other questions, begin their exploration of the past with the most powerful cultural expressions that the Greeks and Romans have left us - their architectural achievements. To illustrate their work, Guhl and Koner assembled a vast collection of 543 woodcuts from a wide variety of authoritative sources: museums, histories of art, books and journals on archaeology. These depict every facet of Greek and Roman life, whether it be the architectural ground-plans for one of the oldest Greek temples on Mount Ocha or a range of Roman cooking utensils. Thoroughly researched and carefully subdivided for easy reference, The Greeks and Romans is both instructive and entertaining.…
