- Synopsis
- The title of this book may seem to beg a large question as probably no two readers will agree as to what should be included under it. This may be one reason why much of the material assembled here is generally distributed over a wide range of books dealing with Greek and Roman social life in general, or with specific aspects of it, rather than organized in the present way. It may also explain why, in one recent attempt to treat of much the same subject, H. Bolkestein followed a comparative method by which Ancient Egyptian and Jewish 'charity' provided the contrast with classical 'well-doing'.
