Pan's Travail: Environmental Problems of the Ancient Greeks

Pan's Travail: Environmental Problems of the Ancient Greeks and Romans (Ancient Society and History)
- Used Book in Good Condition
In Pan's Travail, J. Donald Hughes examines the environmental history of the classical period and argues that the decline of ancient civilizations resulted in part from exploitation of the natural world. Focusing on Greece and Rome, as well as areas subject to their influences, Hughes offers a detailed look at the impact of humans and their technologies on the ecology of the Mediterranean basin. He also compares the ancient world's environmental problems to those of other eras and discusses attitudes toward nature expressed in Greek and Latin literature.
