“Ancient Greek Literature – Part B’ ” (1/2024)
Hellenic Post circulates on January 17, 2024 the B’ part of the Definitive set of stamps “Ancient Greek Literature”
The fifth and fourth centuries are unique in the history of the human spirit for the stature and number of the figures that appeared: never before or since have there been clustered together in just two centuries – and in the same city, Athens – so many and such emblematic intellectuals. Epicurus, Xenophon, Socrates, Herodotus, Euripides, who are depicted on the stamps of the A’ part, as well as Aristophanes, Aeschylus, Pindar, Heraclitus and Anaxagoras, who are depicted on the stamps of the B’ part, are only some of those who founded and defined the ways, values and axes of civilization in the Western world.
