Introduction

Explore the ancient world and understand how its legacy affects society today. We embark on a voyage of discovery that takes you first overseas through the incredible story of the cataclysmic clash of two of the greatest cultures of the ancient world - Greece, and Persia. Following this, the epic scale of the Greek victory which led to the devastating war for supremacy between Sparta and Athens is analyzed. We will then look at the society and politics of Sparta in more detail, focusing on the contributions that different groups and individuals made to the development of the city-state in the 5th Century BC. Ideally suited for those also studying Classics or History, or a really good complementary subject for Sociology, Philosophy, Ethics and Religion, and English, or possibly a wonderful stand-alone subject for anybody aiming for a university course in Archaeology, History or Classics.
