John Freely
Strolling through Athens
Μεταχειρισμένο αντίτυπο.
(Κατάσταση: Άριστη, χωρίς σημειώσεις ή τσακίσεις.)
Interweaving anecdotes and archaeology, mythology and museum tours, history and architecture, John Freely takes us on a series of strolls around the streets of Athens. The book is planned so that as we walk through colourful and interesting quarters such as Plaka and Monastiraki, we visit their monuments and museums, and throughout, John Freely describes ancient archaeological sites, such as the Akropolis and the Agora, in the context of the living, modern town of which they are integral parts. Contemporary Athens is a unique place. As we uncover its hidden secrets, we find that at its heart the ancient city of Athens is still there, resplendent. «O shining, violet-crowned, song-famed bulwalk of Greece, illustrious Athens, city of the gods. . .» (Pindar)
