Did Greeks share our notion of romantic love? Why was it more desirable to be a slave than a day labourer? Were they really more cultivated than we are? This title features a portrait of ancient Greece in which the daily lives of ordinary people come alive: men and women, children and the elderly, slaves and foreigners, rich and poor.
