| Summary | "The Daily Life of the Greeks and Romans as Illustrated in the Classical Collections" by Helen McClees, Ph.D., is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a comprehensive guide to everyday life in ancient Greece and Rome, particularly through the lens of artifacts housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The book delves into various aspects and practices, shedding light on how these ancient cultures lived, worshipped, and interacted socially. At the start of the work, the introduction outlines the aim of the handbook as a means to illuminate the daily life of the Greeks and Romans through antiquities. It emphasizes the importance of private artifacts in gaining insights into cultural practices and societal norms of the time. The introduction highlights the contrast between the neatly preserved objects we can study today and the often overlooked but rich and meaningful history they represent, paving the way for an exploration of topics such as religion, theater, domestic life, and community customs that will be expanded upon in subsequent chapters.
