Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Greeks, who were the first to make this distinction, felt that they were different from any other people. They felt that they were not barbarians, but they were foreigners who did not speak Greek.
#2 The Greeks were the first civilization to create a written law, and they were also the first to develop a sense of freedom. They were ruled by Law, which respected justice. The other civilizations of the East were ruled by absolute rulers who did not respect the rights of their subjects.
#3 The Greeks developed a form of polity that satisfied the higher instincts and capabilities of man. Other forms of political society have been static, while the city-state was the means by which the Greek strove to make the life of the community and the individual more excellent.
#4 I have tried to write about the Greeks as I know them, not as I imagine them to be. I have allowed myself the luxury of writing on points that interest me, instead of covering the whole field in a systematic and probably hurried manner.
