Summary

Philip Matyszak: A Year in the Life of Ancient Greece: The Real Life of the People There

The year is 248 BC. There is tension throughout ancient Greece. All eyes are on the city of Elea: the 133rd Olympic Games are approaching. Held in honor of the supreme god Zeus, they were much more than a sports competition – it was a good opportunity for merchants, musicians and restaurateurs to earn extra money, for sponsors to show off their wealth, and for rulers to brag about their successes. their athletes. Spend a year in the motley company of the ancient Greeks, which includes a runaway slave, a diplomat, an athlete and a bride-to-be, and feel the rush of excitement before the competition itself, at a time when the ordinary world forgets its problems with rooting for its favorite athletes and brushing aside political rivalries because the only thing that matters is Olympic victory. British historian Philip Metizak, author of numerous books about the peoples and heroes of the ancient times, and already known to us by the titles 24 hours in ancient Athens and 24 hours in ancient Rome, once again depicts the ancient era in bright colors that sparkle with the freshness of the present. Witty, meaningful and accessible to readers of all ages, One Year in the Life of Ancient Greece is a useful and entertaining read that will undoubtedly appeal to all lovers of interesting history.
