Zustand: Gut. Unchanged reprint of the edition 1923. 264 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Cut soiled, jacket smaller than book, text part very clean. - The origin of the Greek city-state reaches back to the times of Homer and Hesiod, when the old monarchy was disappearing. The Polis arose as an antimonarchic State and it remained so, in spite of tyranny. It was a state of ven. small size, there being several reasons for political particularism in the Greek worldfirstly. the natural division of the country into many separate districts, islands, peninsulas, etc. ; further, the division of the Greek people into many larger or smaller tribes, and accordingly of the Greek religion into numerous local cults. Several hundreds of city-states existed, most of them extremely small. The State consisted of its citizens, considered less as individuals than as forming smaller communities of kinship, of cult, of locality. Each individual was tied to the life of all these communities and of the State. Moreover, the State was not only a politici community. To be a citizen meant adherence to the cults of the gods of the Polis, as well as military and economic service to the State, and obedience to its laws. The perfect Greek citizen is described by Aristotle, as at the same time attached to his polis, and a free man. Liberty, autonomy, autarky were the ideals of the polis, and its chief claim was to be ruled by law (nomos). In actual fact government remained a question of power, but the sacred nomos always directed and regulated actual politics. The Polis and its nomos lost its power and its function of leadership in Greek politics partly through the corruption of democracy, but more so through the overwhelming power of Alexanders empire and the Hellenistic monarchies. - Wikipedia: Sir William Reginald Halliday (26 September 1886 25 November 1966) was a historian and archaeologist who served as Principal of King's College London from 1928 to 1952.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Greek and Roman Folklore' explores the fascinating tapestry of popular beliefs, superstitions, and traditional narratives that shaped the daily lives of ancient Greeks and Romans. Authored by William Reginald Halliday, this scholarly yet accessible work delves into the origins and evolution of myths, legends, and folk practices, distinguishing between the sophisticated literary mythology of the elite and the enduring oral traditions of the common people. The book examines various aspects of ancient life, including magical practices, omens, and the cultural transmission of stories across the Mediterranean world. By analyzing the survival of these traditions into later eras, Halliday provides invaluable insights into the psychological and social underpinnings of classical civilization.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Pagan Background of Early Christianity' explores the complex religious and cultural landscape of the Greco-Roman world into which the early Church was born. This scholarly study examines the myriad influences of Hellenistic philosophy, mystery religions, and Roman social structures on the development of Christian thought and practice during its formative centuries.Sir William Reginald Halliday provides a comprehensive analysis of the spiritual environment of the first few centuries of the common era, illustrating how existing pagan traditions provided both a challenge and a conduit for the spread of Christian doctrines. The work delves into the ethical standards of the time, the nature of religious associations, and the prevailing philosophical schools such as Stoicism and Neoplatonism that shaped the intellectual climate of the Mediterranean.By situating the rise of Christianity within its broader historical context, the work offers valuable insights into the syncretic nature of late antiquity and the transformation of the classical world. It remains an essential resource for students of theology, ancient history, and classical studies seeking to understand the diverse elements that contributed to the evolution of the Western religious tradition.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
