TY - GEN AB - "The Ancient Shore transports readers to a time when the ancient shore was an unpredictable, formidable place that left an indelible mark on Hellenistic societies -- on trade, conquest, science, philosophy, literature, and religion. Focusing on the ancient Mediterranean and West Asia, Kosmin argues that coastlines, as sites of cross-cultural contact and natural confrontation, played an integral role in the rise of a greater historical and individual consciousness."-- AU - Kosmin, Paul J., CN - CB450 ID - 1562987 KW - Human geography.
