Books by Anthony M. Snodgrass

Until quite recently, it has been the accepted view that the Archaic period of Greek history was by definition merely a prelude to the Oassical period. This book focuses on Archaic Greece that shows how the supremacy of Classical Greece would have been impossible without the preceding centuries of the Archaic period.

The author argues that classical archaeology has a rare potential in the whole field of the study of the past to make innovative discoveries and apply modern approaches by widening the aims of the discipline.
