Antony G. Keen
Dayschool in Wilmslow, 15th March 2019
The worlds of Greece and Rome have been central to western education and culture since the Renaissance. It is therefore not surprising that antiquity has provided subject matter for the cinema since the movies began. Some of the most memorable movies that Hollywood has produced are Greek and Roman epics (Ben-Hur, Jason and the Argonauts, Gladiator). And cinema both responds to and shapes the general population’s perception of the ancient world.
