BLACK ATHENA-The Afroasiatic Roots of Classical Civilisation – Volume I: The Fabrication of Ancient Greece 1785-1985

Abstract

Half a century after the Second World War–the most horrible catastrophe of human history–research is more and more directed towards the lessons to be derived from it. They aim to welcome the twenty-first century with a more objective and scientific world view. At the top of the selfcriticism list is racism, the main instigator of the 1939-1945 war. Symptoms of its revival necessitated a special interest in the subject. Thus researchers concentrated their efforts on how and in what conditions such a movement became a dominating conception.
