It’s time for us to reexamine the past. Our lives are infinitely richer if we take the time to look at what the Greeks and Romans have given us in politics and law, religion and philosophy and education, and to learn how people really lived in Athens, Rome, Sparta, and Alexandria.
This is a book with a serious point to make, but the author isn’t simply a classicist but a comedian and broadcaster who has made television and radio documentaries about humour, education, and Dorothy Parker.
This is a book for us all. Whether political, cultural or social, there are endless parallels between the ancient and modern worlds.
Whether it’s the murder of Caesar or the political assassination of Thatcher; the narrative arc of the hit TV series The Wire or that of Oedipus; the popular enthusiasm for the emperor Titus or President Obama - over and over again we can be seen to be living very much like people did 2,000 or more years ago.

Those darned Greeks, they did it all - while standing upon their olive branches.

caesar salad is smug, thin-skinned, and less than mediocre… but he is consistent.

Hey, q anon - you’ve just obliviously written your tragic epitaph - and on “thin-skinned,” I appropriately corrected you on your ignorance concerning Jewish tradition, & you never got over it!
@nazi Within - Yes, lol. While cultural cross-fertilisation is a constant, it’s also not about merely adopting, but adapting. By any measure the Greeks were remarkable. If only considering democracy, trial by jury, all the dimensions of philosophical speculation, etc. etc. Some cultures (ahem) haven’t reached the level of Athens even now…
