Greeko-roman Itihas Charcha

The ancient Greek democratic society is renowned as the cradle of world civilization. Everything that constitutes the glory of European culture today traces its origins back to ancient Greek civilization. In the 6th century BCE, the Greek intellect was deeply immersed in introspection and creativity. It shone brilliantly through its poetry, rhetoric, philosophy, historical consciousness, and profound understanding of life. However, the sighs of oppressed slaves and their sorrow-laden tears remain a stained chapter in that civilization's history. Nevertheless, the political philosophy, the emergence of rational thought, and the diverse cultural expressions witnessed in Greece at that time were unparalleled in any other contemporary civilization. Adapting to the changing times, Greek philosophy subsequently attained a position of high esteem within Roman civilization as well. Greek-Roman historical philosophy is globally acclaimed and stands established as a primary source for scholarly research. In this volume, the authors have employed lucid prose to analyze the historical philosophy and intellectual currents of 6th-century Greece and Rome from a historical perspective. Written in accordance with the Honours-level undergraduate syllabus (CBCS) of Vidyasagar University, Kazi Nazrul University, and—in part—Bankura University, this edition is sure to appeal to the general reader as well.
