Heath, John (Santa Clara University, California)
This book explores the link between speech, humanity, and status in ancient Greek thought. It offers new readings of the Iliad, Odyssey, Oresteia and Plato's Dialogues to argue that speech and the ability to speak were instrumental in the ancient Greeks' approach to understanding our world.
