ISBN10: 0195380797, ISBN13: 9780195380798, [publisher: Oxford : Oxford University Press] Softcover VIII, 231 p.

Why and how the ancient Greeks tried to foretell the outcome of the present is the subject of Esther Eidinow's lively appraisal, which explores the legacy of classical notions of luck, fate and fortune in our own era. Perhaps the most famous of all sites of prediction is the Oracle at Delphi.

Exploring some of the key ideas of ancient Greek culture that resonate with modern conceptions of destiny and the future, Esther Eidinow examines the ancients' notion of luck as a means to explain daily experiences and ultimate agency. Focusing on writers such as Homer, Herodotus, Thucydides and Demosthenes, she demonstrates how concepts of fate in antiquity chan ...
