Description: "This trilogy of books studies the ancient Greek thought as found in Greek poetry textually, psychologically, and also from the angle of art. ... The central theme of my academic work of fifty years has been the movement of ideas - in law, literature, and the wider aspects of culture - from one country to another and one era to the next and this trilogy follows the same broad theme."--Volume I, page v.
Notes: Volume I and II called "2nd edition"; these two volumes originally appeared in Greek, published by the Greek publishing house of I. Sideris, and are now appearing in English, as originally written. See first volume, page v.
