regarded as the unrivalled one-volume reference work on all aspects of
the Graeco-Roman world. As an authoritative reference to all there is to
know about the ancients, the third edition of the Dictionary, published
in 1996, has firmly maintained that position, taking into account the
huge expansion in the scholarship and scope of classical studies.
The value of the Dictionary in terms of factual detail is immense. It
provides both scholars and non-specialists with a comprehensive source
of reference which aims to answer all their questions about the
classical world. In over 6,200 entries written by the very best of
classical scholars from all over the world the Dictionary provides
coverage of Greek and Roman history, literature, myth, religion,
linguistics, philosophy, law, science, art and archaeology, and topics
in near eastern studies, and late antiquity.
The approach is
interdisciplinary: all areas, regions, and cultures are represented
beyond the core areas of Greece and Rome. As well as providing factual
information the Dictionary contains many thematic entries, on subjects
relevant to the 21st century such as nationalism, race, and ecology. The
text is written in an accessible style and all Latin and Greek words
have been translated.
For this revised edition, the two
editors Simon Hornblower and Antony Spawforth have made numerous small
corrections and updates throughout, to make an outstanding work even
better.
The Dictionary covers:
politics,
government, economy - from political figures to political systems, terms
and practices, histories of major states and empires, economic theory,
agriculture, artisans and industry, trade and markets
religion
and mythology - deities and mythological creatures, beliefs and
rituals, sanctuaries and sacred buildings, astrology and magic
law and philosophy - from biographies of lawgivers and lawyers to legal
terms and procedures, from major and minor philosophers to
philosophical schools, terms, and concepts
science and
geography - scientists and scientific theory and practice, doctors and
medicine, climate and landscape, natural disasters, regions and islands,
cities and settlements, communications
languages, literature,
art, and architecture - languages and dialects, writers and literary
terms and genres, orators and rhetorical theory and practice, drama and
performance, art, painters and sculptors, architects, buildings and
materials
archaeology and historical writing - amphorae and
pottery, shipwrecks and cemeteries, historians, and Greek and Roman
historiography
military history - generals, arms and armour, famous battles, attitudes to warfare
