Summary

"The Pimlico Dictionary of Classical Civilizations is an original work of reference which breaks new ground by treating for the first time the classical era of the Old World as a whole. Never before have the key peoples and events of Greece, Rome, Persia, India and China been encompassed in a single volume, despite the fact that their civilizations had much in common and laid the foundations of present-day Europe and Asia." "Comprehensive, wide-ranging and lavishly illustrated, The Pimlico Dictionary of Classical Civilizations provides a fascinating overview and a detailed analysis of the formative period of the world, making it indispensable for both students and the general reader."--Jacket
