Mediterranean Heritage (Routledge Revivals)

Mediterranean Heritage, first published in 1978, offers a wide-ranging and perceptive discussion of the often concealed links between English culture and the common heritage of Western Europe: the Graeco-Roman legacy of the Mediterranean. Appearing at a time which England is more obviously a part of Europe than she has been for sixteen hundred years, this book provides valuable insights into the origins of our culture¿s greatest achievements.
