The Greeks and the New: Novelty in ancient Greek imagination and experience

This is a wide-ranging monograph (c. 87,000 words) which touches on virtually every area in which Greek thinking and experience encountered novelty, from the Mycenean period through to the end of the 4th century BC. The book was the result of over 10 years of research subsequent to the award in 1998 of D'Angour's doctoral thesis. The latter focussed on only a limited area and timespan - half a century, 430-380 BC; that material remains core, but was considerably augmented in the book.
