A History of the Greek and Roman World, first published in 1926,
presents the story of Graeco-Roman antiquity from its earliest
recorded origins to the height of the Roman imperium. It aims to
bring into prominence the internal dynamism - political, cultural,
intellectual, and aesthetic - which animated the ancient peoples at
different periods of their history, and to draw attention to the
physical, socio-economic and religious conditions under which they
lived. Written in a style which will likely be unfamiliar to modern
readers, Grundy's historical portrait is painted with broad
brush-strokes, offering not only compelling narrative but also
incisive commentary on the individuals and societies which occupy
the foreground. A History of the Greek and Roman World will be of
interest for the general enthusiast as well as students, who may
value such a radically different approach to the interpretation of
antiquity compared to the conventions which prevail amongst
contemporary scholars.
