This work analyzes the finest period of the Greek city-states, from the 8th to the 4th century BC. The author introduces and explains the sources of Greek creativity and the intellectual clarity of their political and artistic concepts. He also examines the conflict between humanism and religion, and the social and economic developments that led to a fragmentation of power, and explains how a loss of confidence turned the world of the city-states in on itself.
