註釋

"This book continues where the paperback version of The Ancient Greek Hero in 24 Hours, published in 2020, left off. Like the previous book, which centered on some of the greatest masterpieces of ancient Greek literature, including the Homeric Iliad and Odyssey along with seven tragedies stemming from the grand masters of the Classical Age of Athens, Ancient Greek Heroes, Athletes, Poetry returns to the same grand era and then moves beyond, in both time and space, with a new emphasis: how did the heroes of ancient Greek poetry relate to athletes, female as well as male, who competed in the athletic festivals of ancient Greece? A primary point of interest here is the ancient Olympics, notionally founded by the hero Herakles. The author has lectured about heroes, athletes and poetry through most of his years as professor at Harvard, and this new book is intended as a culmination of his relevant research and teaching"--Publisher's description.
