Description

A People's History of Classics explores how the classical past influenced the lives of working-class people in Britain and Ireland from 1689 to 1939. This Routledge publication challenges the idea that working-class culture was a "Classics-Free Zone" during this period. While previous histories of classical scholarship and pedagogy have largely excluded these voices, this volume uses diverse sources to examine the connection between the ancient world and the working class. It provides a new perspective on the study of ancient Greeks and Romans, moving beyond the exclusive intellectual culture of British elites to reveal a more complete history of classical influence.
