The Future of the Classical

By Salvatore Settis and Allan Cameron

Book Overview

In this elegant book, Salvatore Settis traces the ways in which we have related to the 'classical' past. He argues that we will be better equipped for the future once we understand that the 'classical' is not a dead culture, but something startling that has to be re-created every day.
