Summary "The Book of the Ancient Greeks" by Dorothy Mills is an introductory historical account written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the history and civilization of Greece, encompassing the period from the arrival of the Greeks to the Roman conquest of Corinth in 146 B.C. The book explores significant aspects of Greek culture, including politics, literature, and art, aiming to illuminate the spirit that characterized this influential civilization. At the start of the book, Mills provides a preface explaining her intent to create a compelling introduction to Greek history and culture, emphasizing the complex interplay between political developments, literature, and artistic achievements. She highlights how various elements of Greek life, such as the Aegean civilization and the historical context of prominent figures like Minos and Theseus, contribute to our understanding of ancient Greek society. The opening chapters set the stage for a deeper exploration of legendary places like Crete and the archaeological significance in revealing ancient practices while connecting them to the broader narrative of Greek history.
