Athens: a history, from ancient ideal to modern city
By Robin Waterfield Book overview Perhaps no other city looms larger in our cultural and historical imagination than Athens. For two and a half millennia, people have looked to the city's past as a beacon of genuine democracy, artistic expression, and the classical ideal. In this engaging narrative, noted classicist Robin Waterfield traces the life and history of Athens, a city whose idealized past continues to inspire the present. This is the only book to cover the entire history of Athens, from its brief period of classical greatness through its decline under a series of ****occupying empires-Macedonian,****Roman,* ***Byzantine, and Turkish-to**** its resurrection in the modern era. Waterfield brings the city vividly to life through the colorful and varied individuals who shaped her history, from Solon, the founder of her democracy, to Pericles, Socrates, Euripides, and the other geniuses of the fifth century, and right up to more recent figures, such as Lord Byron and Baron de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympics.As Waterfield shows, the memory of Athens' glorious past-even if that memory is a myth-has inspired generations, and offers vital lessons for the current era. http://books.google.com.au/books... |

Dodona is right, Arbanon will be spoken again, because it was the first language of greeks before the arrival of persian christians, and christian turks in the peloponessus,
he is right about that, i will give you that much, albaniansare the true atheniana,and epirians, like i said forty five percent of greece was albanian territory, thessaly, epirus and athens, albanian speaking cities, |
||||
Can you David... give us a whole definition of where we came from?Are you a historian? I didn't think so either. You are just all jealous Slavs and Slobos trying to steal Greece's rich history.It's sad when people like yourselves don't like yourselves. |
||||
By the way...those monkey faces have the Albos have a different look from the Greeks. Where are their marbles? Inscriptions on coins with Greek writing to prove that they were greeks too. |

1 Can I ask you a question ass hat? Why do you stop at us greeks of who we are today. You don't think the other trash in the balkans have not been f***ked by Turks in their territory? Mind you the Slavs had them on their turf longer and even kept them?Look at Albos and Armenians.. you don't think? You think we don't know what you filthy scum is up to? You know it's sad that you people have to steal another's identity for sake of feeling better about yourselves. I think it's sad. We speak our language till this day. All languages evolve too. But we still have our alphabet. We can still read what our ancestors wrote and pretty much understand it till this day. Can a damn Slav understand it? Can an Albanian? No! Who does it belong to this history? That's right us. |

Stop this pathetic and hillarius rascist attack , because you are discrasing the Albanians as a whole. AND NEVER TALK ABOUT THE OTTOMAN ERA, YOU LITTLE PRICK, WE ALL KNOW WHAT SOME WELL KNOWN ALBANIANS WERE DOING. AND NO, THE FACT THAT ALBANIAN WAS SPOKEN DOESNT MAKE ANYONE ALBANIAN AND DOESNT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO SUGGEST SO, LITTLE UNEDUCATED BASTARD. WE ARE THE ONES . follow as your generations are doing from the time of their arrival. fascist bastard |

another albanian preaching .... to the Greeks. we have a saying in Greece, "give courage to the villager and he will get on your bed." NOBODY IS PLAYING WITH YOUR (lol) PEOPLE LITTLE FASCIST PRICK No2. The ottoman leftovers are gathered in your country like it or not. The dialect that our people were speaking, they did it for survival little TURKOLOVER. NOW SHUT YOUR VENOMUS MOUTH BOTH OF YOU. pathetic vultures |

make up your mind. when slavs of skopia say macedonians are slavs you say yes. then you continue by sayings greeks are persian. now you state that greeks are slavic tattars. Hence you mean greeks are macedonians by skopian standards. have a good day marsian. |
||||
