This is a thorough and authoritative set of books about the Sophists - who were itinerant professional teachers and intellectuals who frequented Athens and other Greek cities in the second half of the fifth century B.C.E. In return for a fee, the sophists offered young wealthy Greek men an education in aretē (virtue or excellence), thereby attaining wealth and fame while also arousing significant antipathy.The author makes the subject very readable and his knowledge is in-depth. This collection is a must for modern day intellectuals and students about a former age of intellectuals!
