Soliloquy of the Soul
Literature灵魂的独语
Yu Shichun
"Words must win over Greece" and "We are all Greeks". Why do people living in modern Western countries have such a soft spot for the long-lost ancient Greek civilization? Why are they so fascinated by that smallest nation that was once active in the Mediterranean? This is because ancient Greek civilization is the source of Western civilization. The ancient Greeks are the recognized cultural ancestors of Westerners. It was this Greek nation, composed of about 200 small states, that gave birth to almost all the embryos of modern Western civilization.
