Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Debt to Antiquity The following lectures were delivered by Professor Zielinski of St. Petersburg University in the spring of 1903 to the highest classes of the secondary schools in the capital. In the same year they were published in the Journal of the Ministry for Popular Education and appeared in separate book form. Despite a somewhat unfavourable reception in the Press the work created widespread interest, and a second edition was soon called for. In preparing it Professor Zielinski retained the form of the first. "I do not want to undo it and undo therewith the memory of hours which I count among the happiest in my life." But he emphasises the fact that this second edition, which the translators have used, is meant for the world at large. He feels strongly and reasonably that "the regeneration of the classical school, which is indispensable in the interests of Russian culture, will come about only when Society itself is convinced of its necessity." It is hoped that the work may be found of no less interest to English readers than it has proved to students on the Continent.

Book Synopsis Our Debt to Antiquity by : Tadeusz Zielinski
Download or read book Our Debt to Antiquity written by Tadeusz Zielinski and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-14 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eight lectures compiled here were given in St. Petersburg at the turn of the 20th century by a man of the East who was an expert on the Classical West. Combining vigorous advocacy for classical education with a comprehensive overview of its relevance to the modern world, Our Debt to Antiquity is a brisk defense of high intellectual aspiration. The author uses numerous examples from Latin and Greek to unlock the riches of Antiquity, which are primarily useful in helping expand our 'ways of seeing' and attaining the mental freedom to change our minds. Dismissing the fashions and moods of men, his theme is the hidden causes by which individuals and groups are able to learn and evolve. He sweeps away all appeals to modern trends without ever becoming precious or reactionary. Anyone who has ever argued for an unpopular cause will recognise the the skill and delicacy with which Tadeusz Zielinski works.

Book Synopsis The Classical Debt by : Johanna Hanink
Download or read book The Classical Debt written by Johanna Hanink and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-22 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since the International Monetary Fund’s first bailout of Greece’s sinking economy in 2010, the phrase “Greek debt” has meant one thing to the country’s creditors. But for millions who claim to prize culture over capital, it means something quite different: the symbolic debt that Western civilization owes to Greece for furnishing its principles of democracy, philosophy, mathematics, and fine art. Where did this other idea of Greek debt come from, Johanna Hanink asks, and why does it remain so compelling today? The Classical Debt investigates our abiding desire to view Greece through the lens of the ancient past. Though classical Athens was in reality a slave-owning imperial power, the city-state of Socrates and Pericles is still widely seen as a utopia of wisdom, justice, and beauty—an idealization that the ancient Athenians themselves assiduously cultivated. Greece’s allure as a travel destination dates back centuries, and Hanink examines many historical accounts that express disappointment with a Greek people who fail to live up to modern fantasies of the ancient past. More than any other movement, the spread of European philhellenism in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries carved idealized conceptions of Greece in marble, reinforcing the Western habit of comparing the Greece that is with the Greece that once was. Today, as the European Union teeters and neighboring nations are convulsed by political unrest and civil war, Greece finds itself burdened by economic hardship and an unprecedented refugee crisis. Our idealized image of ancient Greece dangerously shapes how we view these contemporary European problems.

Book Synopsis The Adaptation of History by : Laurence Raw
Download or read book The Adaptation of History written by Laurence Raw and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-11-26 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays asks the question "What is history?" and considers how history is shaped in different socioeconomic contexts. The writers take a transdisciplinary approach, in the belief that everyone who deals with history--including professional historians, novelists, and poets--constructs narratives of the past to make sense of the present as well as to determine their future courses of action. With contributions from a variety of specialists in media studies, literature, history and anthropology, this book breaks new ground in adaptation studies.
