Scholarly Work,
By Warren J. Dunklin (Jacksonville, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Daily Life in Carthage at the Time of Hannibal (Textbook Binding)
Although over forty years old, history students and teachers alike will find the descriptions, logic, and objectivity engaging. Nine chapters cover Carthaginian history and culture thoroughly. A very informal outline follows:I. History of Carthage (brief overview) II. The City of Carthage (strategic position, structures and architecture) III. Society: the ruling classes (Priests, nobles, aristocracy) IV. People, Industry, and the Social Problem V. Everyday Life (Dress, Jewelry, food, family life, customs) VI. Traders and Commerce (Explanation and history of economic competition between Carthage and the restof the Mediterranean world) VII. Diplomacy, Army, and Navy VIII. Great Expeditions (Exploration) IX. Conclusion Documentation is thorough and the footnotes worth reading. At 263 pages, the book is well worth the price. |
