From the time of the Roman Empire onwards, fifth- and
fourth-century Greece have been held to be the period and place in
which civilization as the West knows it developed. Classical
scholars have sought to justify these claims in detail by
describing developments in fields such as democratic politics, art,
rationality, historiography, literature, philosophy, medicine and
music, in which classical Greece has been held to have made a
revolutionary contribution. In this volume a distinguished cast of
contributors offers a fresh consideration of these claims, asking
both whether they are well based and what is at stake for their
proposers and for us in making them. They look both at modern
scholarly argument and its basis and at the claims made by the
scholars of the Second Sophistic. The volume will be of interest
not only to classical scholars but to all who are interested in the
history of scholarship.
