The world we live in would be unrecognizably different without the influence of Ancient Greek models in art, myth, literature and philosophy. Paul Cartledge shows us why. Ian Thompson looks at landscape architecture, exploring its history and origins as well as modern developments. Andrew Robinson investigates the roles of talent, heredity, education, hard work, personality, mental illness, inspiration, and luck, in the making of genius.
