Summary

Irving Stone: Greek Treasure

In Greece, light is not something that comes from outside, that is perceived. It penetrates through the pores of man's body and mind, until it becomes a brilliant force that pulsates in the human fortress. The Greek sun breaks through every opening and burns in the chest, as if beating another heart, sending the warm blood of life through the veins. The Egyptians worship the sun, and the sun resides in the Greeks. Although he did not have an easy childhood, Heinrich Schliemann was unusually enterprising, with a tireless adventurous spirit from an early age. He traveled halfway around the world, made a fortune from trade and learned many languages, never ceasing to dream that one day he would find the remains of the legendary Troy, a testimony to the fact that this world of fearless heroes is not just a figment of the imagination of the greatest epic poet of all time. Even when he was a boy, he believed with all his heart that Agamemnon was really waging war for the sake of the beautiful Helen and that Hector and Achilles had fought under the walls of a city that was lost forever in flames. Guided by the magic of Homer's verses, Schliemann came to Greece in early 1868 and began a series of successful excavations. He was not alone in this magnificent undertaking: by his side was Sofia, his love and support, a devoted woman who lived his dream together with him.
