Blackwell Ancient Lives
At a time when much scholarly writing on the ancient world is
abstract and analytical, this series presents engaging, accessible
accounts of the most influential figures of antiquity. It re-peoples
the ancient landscape; and while never losing sight of the vast
gulf that separates antiquity from our own world, it seeks to
communicate the delight of reading historical narratives to
discover “what happened next.”
