In this comprehensive book, an international team of contributors, drawn from the fields of Classics, History, Politics, and English, explores a diverse array of revolutionary transformations that occurred in England, America, France, Haiti, Greece, Italy, Russia, Germany, and a rapidly globalized world. These transformative events, accorded the classical treatment, are scrutinized in individual chapters, while the Introduction highlights common patterns among them. The central question posed by the book is whether classical equations serve as a valued ideal when evidence supports them, are imposed by an unyielding desire for power, or are sincere efforts to make sense of events that would otherwise remain enigmatic and perilous. Furthermore, the book delves into the question of whether these events, once subjected to the classical narrative, retain their ability to stir and inspire or are ultimately contained within the confines of historical interpretation. Classicising Crisis: The Modern Age of Revolutions and the Greco-Roman Repertoire is a vital resource for students and scholars engaged in the study of Classics, Classical Reception, and Political Thought in Europe and the Americas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367531195\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44278232514810,"sku":"9780367531195","price":40.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1686329562631_book.jpg?v=1686655746","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/classicising-crisis-the-modern-age-of-revolutions-and-the-grecoroman-repertoire-9780367531195","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
