First sentence: My approach to the ancient Greeks is informed by that 'comparativist perspective' without which students of Greek antiquity will easily mistake, indeed can hardly fail to mistake, what may be distinctive, and what may be said to be in no way exceptional, either in the intellectual products of the society they study or in the circumstances and manner of their production.
