520    Main Description:Revered as the birthplace of Western 
       thought and democracy, Athens is much more than an open-
       air museum filled with crumbling monuments to ancient 
       glory. Athens takes readers on a journey from the 
       classical city-state to today's contemporary capital, 
       revealing a world-famous metropolis that has been 
       resurrected and redefined time and again. Although the 
       Acropolis remains the city's anchor, Athens' vibrant 
       culture extends far beyond the Greek city's antique 
       boundaries. James H.S. McGregor points out how the 
       citatheyscape preserves signs of the many actors who have 
       crossed its historical stage. Alexander the Great 
       incorporated Athens into his empire, as did the Romans. 
       Byzantine Christians repurposed Greek temples, the 
       Parthenon included, into churches. From the thirteenth to 
       fifteenth centuries, the city's language changed from 
       French to Spanish to Italian, as Crusaders and adventurers
       from different parts of Western Europe took turns sacking 
       and administering the city. An Islamic Athens took root 
       following the Ottoman conquest of 1456 and remained in 
       place for nearly four hundred years, until Greek patriots 
       finally won independence in a blood-drenched revolution. 
       Since then, Athenians have endured many hardships, from 
       Nazi occupation and military coups to famine and economic 
       crisis. Yet, as McGregor shows, the history of Athens is 
       closer to a heroic epic than a Greek tragedy. Richly 
       supplemented with maps and illustrations, Athens paints a 
       portrait of one of the world's great cities, designed for 
       travelers as well as armchair students of urban history.
