Was Greek Thought Religious? On the Use and Abuse of Hellenism, from Rome to Romanticism

'Was Greek Thought Religious? will raise eyebrows, and even hackles, in some quarters, but it represents an unprecedented contribution to the public debate, still simmering, about why the Greeks, or Hellenes, matter, whether in law courts or in sporting arenas...' - Bruce B. Lawrence, Nancy and Jeffrey Marcus Professor of Religion and Chair, Duke University

'An enjoyable read, sure to inform readers seeking specific context and example for the impact of Hellenic ideals...' - P.B. Harvey, Choice
