The Menexenus is a Socratic dialogue of Plato, traditionally included in the seventh tetralogy along with the Greater and Lesser Hippias and the Ion. The speakers are Socrates and Menexenus, who is not to be confused with Socrates' son Menexenus. The Menexenus of Plato's dialogue appears also in the Lysis, where he is identified as the "son of Demophon", as well as the Phaedo. The Menexenus consists mainly of a lengthy funeral oration, referencing the one given by Pericles in Thucydides' account of the Peloponnesian War.

When dark smoke rises from stone temples, the followers of the cult of Dionysus pour each other deep red wine, ancient philosophers passionately discuss in the Athenian agora, and cheering shouts of victory ring out from Olympia in the distance - then you, dear readers, are nowhere else than in the multifaceted world of Greek antiquity. We hear a lot about ancient Greece; be it the huge world of gods that rules over the celestial sphere, strange myths that we still read and love today, or even personalities like that of Alexander the Great that trigger fascination and curiosity in us.

Cuando sale humo oscuro de los templos de piedra, los seguidores del culto a Dioniso se sirven vino tinto intenso, los antiguos filósofos discuten apasionadamente en el ágora ateniense y los gritos de victoria resuenan en Olimpia a lo lejos, entonces tú, querido lector, no te encuentras en ningún otro lugar que en el polifacético mundo de la antigüedad griega. Oímos hablar mucho de la antigua Grecia; ya sea del enorme mundo de dioses que gobierna la esfera celeste, de extraños mitos que aún hoy leemos y amamos, o incluso de personalidades como la de Alejandro Magno que desencadenan en nosotros fascinación y curiosidad.

¿Sabía usted que Alejandro Magno introdujo una vez la proskynesis en la corte macedonia? La proskynesis, el acto de besar el suelo o los pies de alguien de rango superior, era una costumbre habitual de los persas. En la corte del Imperio aqueménida, este acto se realizaba normalmente ante el rey. Tanto si eran nativos del país como si no, los súbditos tenían que postrarse ante el rey antes de poder pronunciar una palabra. A diferencia de los griegos y los macedonios, los persas solo practicaban la proskynesis cuando se comunicaban con sus antiguos dioses.

Cuando se publicó por primera vez en 1970, La mujer eunuco supuso un punto de inflexión en la defensa de los derechos de la mujer. La tesis sobre la que se sustenta es que la familia nuclear, consumista y urbana reprime a la mujer sexualmente y esta acaba por desvitalizarse y convertirse en eunuco. Por esta razón, advierte Greer, la auténtica liberación pasa por una liberación sexual. Casi cinco décadas más tarde, La mujer eunuco se ha convertido en un importante documento histórico y pone en relevancia todo el trabajo que queda por hacer.

Covering the whole of the ancient Greek experience from its beginnings late in the third millennium BCE to the Roman conquest in 30 BCE, Out of One, Many is an accessible and lively introduction to the Greeks and their ways of living and thinking. In this fresh and witty exploration of the thought, culture, society, and history of the Greeks, Jennifer Roberts traces not only the common values that united them across the seas and the centuries, but also the enormous diversity in their ideas and beliefs.

Esta obra reúne dois dos mais brilhantes diálogos de Platão, notável discípulo de Sócrates, mentor de Aristóteles e um dos mais abrangentes e influentes escritores da história da filosofia. O Banquete apresenta uma discussão entre alguns dos cérebros filósofos da antiguidade sobre o amo (Eros), com destaque para as sábias palavras de Sócrates. Em Apologia de Sócrates, Platão traz o registro de uma das defesas mais majestosas da História, na qual seu mestre foi julgado e condenado à morte sob a acusação de subverter a juventude em Atenas.

Epic poetry and tragic drama provide us with some of the richest ancient Greek depictions of women who are married to soldiers. In tales of the Trojan War, as told by Homer, Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, we encounter these mythical warriors' wives: Penelope, isolated but resourceful as she awaits the return of Odysseus after his lengthy absence; the war widow Andromache, enslaved and displaced from her homeland after the fall of Troy; the unfaithful and murderous Clytemnestra; and Tecmessa, a war captive who witnesses her partner's breakdown and suicide in the aftermath of battle. 

Many of the city-states of Ancient Greece gave the world a legacy rich in art, literature, poetry, philosophy, and science. But one such state distinguished itself by embracing something very different: a warrior lifestyle, a denial of luxury and wealth, and a focus on the collective rather than the individual. While most other Ancient Greek city-states have been forgotten, the name of that city remains in use in the English language today, meaning austere or rigorous: Spartan.
