Description
In concise and convenient form, THE GREEK MIND examines certain basic problems and patterns of Greek life which are especially pertinent to twentieth century America, including international relations, the rights of minorities, and individual values. The author draws parallels between Greek experience and our own in order to point up significant lessons to be learned from the Greeks. At the same time, he keeps before the reader those differences in attitude and background which temper analogies. The passages from Greek writings, freshly translated into a modern idiom, convey representative thinking of Greeks in the pioneer era, through the Great Age, and during the dispersion.
