History, for Greeks, was carved in stone, not written in hindsight. These stones still speak today. A Manual of Greek Historical Inscriptions gathers many of the most important public documents of the Greek world, from the rise of the city-state to the age of Alexander and beyond. In clear, carefully edited texts with scholarly annotation, Edward Lee Hicks and George Francis Hill offer a greek epigraphy manual that opens the original voices of statesmen, lawmakers, generals and citizens. Decrees, treaties, honours, dedications and civic regulations unfold as primary sources Greek history students can handle directly, a classical studies sourcebook and ancient history reference book in one. Ideal for classics students and teachers seeking greek historical inscriptions of classical Greece, and an enduring reference for ancient historians, it illuminates the political, social and religious life of Hellenistic and classical Greece through the very words cut into marble and bronze. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Long recognised as a foundational Greek inscription collection, this is the standard Hicks and Hill Greek inscriptions volume prized by specialists yet accessible to the curious reader seeking ancient Greece primary sources in authentic form. Serving both as a rigorous working tool for classics students and a handsome addition to serious libraries, it stands at the crossroads of study, collecting and the enduring fascination of the ancient world.
