First Published in 1934, this book gives a general survey of the history of classical Greek literature from Homer to Aristotle. This is a must read for students of Greek literature and history of classical literature.

This second volume continues with a description of the fine Georgian monuments of the Tao region, including Ihan, OEk Vank, and Haho. The Pontus region comes next, the centre of the medieval Greek empire of Trebizond. The many Byzantine churches of Trabzon itself are covered, including Aya Sofya and the nearby monasteries of Sumela and Vazelon.

Civilizations of great diversity have succeeded each other or co-existed in Eastern Turkey, and most of them have left monuments of high quality. Hittite, Urartian, Hellenistic, Roman, Syrian, Byzantine, Armenian, Arab, Seljuk and Ottoman, their remains are all represented in the region.
