O knihe
Seven Against Thebes was one of the most important myths of antiquity: in The Iliad, Agamemnon and Diomedes talked about its heroes as their unattainable ideals. For the next two thousand years, it was the subject of countless artistic depictions, poems and dramatic works. Here, one of Europe's best-selling authors of books on antiquity introduces the myth, its roots in the Bronze Age, its historical traces and interpretations, the literature it has given rise to, and its impact on the subsequent generations of Greeks and Romans. Finally, he invites us to consider the role of myth in our own lives. Aleksander Krawczuk's delightful books on Greece and Rome have shaped three generations of antique lovers in Europe. Reading this author feels like taking part in a pleasant conversation after a nice dinner, by the fireside, with a glass of sherry in hand. His topics are important and may seem forbidding, but the good professor finds a way to talk about them in an unassuming way without dumbing them down in the process. Pick up a copy today and escape into intelligent pleasure.
