Aardvark, meerkat, wildebeest, springbok, trek: did you know these were words from Afrikaans? There are about 7 million native speakers of Afrikaans in South Africa. It’s the third-most-spoken language in the country.

Ancient Greece - History - e bookOur price: £8.00While Ancient Greece A History, e book, is not available directly from us, you can buy a copy of this e book from many online sellers, and a link is provided below. The book was first published in 1913, and the author, H B Cotterill, wanted to reveal the ‘inner life’ of Ancient Greece – the spirit of a country that gave us the scientific and critical histories of Herodotus and Thucydides, the unblinking and sometimes frightening insights into the human condition of the Greek tragic playwrights, and the mature and dignified works of the sculptors and architects of Classical Greece. The external history through which Cotterill leads the reader is the framework in which we are to place and understand these inspirational works of Western culture. His presentation of the enduring achievements of Greek art, literature and philosophy in their historical context continues to inform and enthuse readers to this day.
