Blackwell Ancient Lives
At a time when much scholarly writing on the ancient world
is abstract and analytical, this series presents engaging,
accessible accounts of the most infl uential fi gures of
antiquity. It re-peoples the ancient landscape; and while
never losing sight of the vast gulf that separates antiquity
from our own world, it seeks to communicate the delight of
reading historical narratives to discover “what happened
next.”
