Summary

Ancient Greek culture is one of the vital wellsprings of Western civilization. It has shaped our arts and architecture, drama and literature, philosophy and politics. Its most vibrant imprint, however, can be found in words that, beyond being popular in their day, continue to serve our language and inspire our thoughts. Greek Proverbs offers an anthology of this extraordinarily creative aspect of Greece's cultural heritage.
