Features: The wisdom of ancient Greece is profound and vast, scattered throughout the vast body of classics. Among the over two thousand collected and organized entries, more than a hundred of the more important ones have been selected. Below each original text and annotation, there is an accompanying illustration, making the visuals both imbued with an ancient charm and yet lively and spirited, making both the content and the form truly "unique and unconventional." There is a moving story that has been passed down: Once, a fisherman from Miletus was fishing and caught a tripod. Some Ionian young men had already paid money in advance for anything caught by the Miletians. A dispute then arose: whether this tripod constituted part of the catch. The two sides argued back and forth, neither yielding. In the end, the Miletian fisherman went to the Delphi Temple and asked the oracle, "Who will possess this tripod?" The oracle replied, "The one with the most wisdom." They then gave it to the wise man Thales. Upon receiving it, Thales felt deeply his own ignorance and thus gave the tripod to other wise men, who eventually passed it on to Solon. Solon believed that the gods were the wisest, so he returned the tripod to the Delphi Temple. Stories like this are many, so let us start from the beginning! This book uses single-panel cartoons, that is, an illustration is paired with each segment of the original text and annotation.
