The Standard.—“Professor Murray does all the justice which is possible in the compass of 400 pages, to a subject so vast, subtle, and many-sided. He has written a lucid and fascinating sketch of the men and movements that shaped in prose and poetry the most splendid and influential literary bequest of antiquity. The method of the book is to realise what sort of men the Greek poets, historians, orators, and philosophers were, and to describe them in their habit as they lived. The book abounds in fresh and vigorous thought, and independence of judgment.”
