Publisher's Synopsis
The Attitude of the Greek Tragedians Toward Nature is a scholarly work by Henry Rushton Fairclough that explores the relationship between ancient Greek literature and the natural world. The book examines the attitudes and beliefs of Greek tragedians towards nature, including their views on the environment, animals, and the divine forces that govern the natural world. Fairclough draws on a range of sources, including the works of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, to offer insights into the ways in which the Greeks understood and interacted with the natural world. The book is a valuable resource for students and scholars of ancient Greek literature, philosophy, and culture, as well as anyone interested in the history of environmental attitudes and beliefs.Thesis Accepted For The Degree Of Doctor Of Philosophy, John Hopkins University, May 1896.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
