The Great Courses - The Modern Scholar - Volume - G This collection represents a sweeping tour of history, philosophy, literature, religion, science, art, and music, drawing largely from The Great Courses series. Classical and ancient studies stand out, with Elizabeth Vandiver’s Greek Tragedy, Robert Garland’s Greece and Rome: An Integrated History, and Hans-Friedrich Mueller’s Greek 101 offering deep dives into the classical world, while Garrett Fagan’s Great Battles of the Ancient World and Bob Brier’s Great Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt highlight pivotal historical legacies. Religion and spirituality are richly explored in Luke Timothy Johnson’s Great World Religions: Christianity, Mark Muesse’s Hinduism, John Esposito’s Islam, Malcolm David Eckel’s Buddhism, and Isaiah Gafni’s Judaism, complemented by Robert Oden’s God and Mankind and David Brakke’s Gnosticism. Intellectual history unfolds through works like Grant Hardy’s Great Minds of the Eastern Intellectual Tradition, Dorsey Armstrong’s Great Minds of the Medieval World, and the expansive Great Minds of the Western Intellectual Tradition. Science, mathematics, and the arts form another strong thread. James Tanton’s Geometry and William Dunham’s Great Thinkers, Great Theorems make mathematics approachable, while Steven Pollock’s Great Ideas of Classical Physics and Steven Goldman’s Great Scientific Ideas highlight paradigm-shifting discoveries. Scott P. Stevens’ Games People Play brings game theory to everyday life, and Edward G. Lengel’s Generals and Geniuses connects science to the Manhattan Project. Literature and the arts are celebrated in Peter Conn’s Great American Bestsellers, Jennifer Cognard-Black’s Great American Short Stories, Pamela Bedore’s Great Utopian and Dystopian Works of Literature, and Great Authors of the Western Literary Tradition. William Kloss’ Great Artists of the Italian Renaissance and Richard Brettell’s Impressionism emphasize visual art, while Robert Greenberg’s extensive Great Masters series (Brahms, Mozart, Liszt, Stravinsky, and more) and Great Music of the Twentieth Century showcase music history at its finest. Rounding out the set are explorations of culture and politics, such as Allan Lichtman’s Great Presidents, Amy-Jill Levine’s Great Figures of the New Testament, and Going to the Devil: The Impeachment of 1868. Together, these works provide a panoramic survey of humanity’s greatest ideas, creations, and turning points.

Let customers speak for us
This series was discontinued due to issues with the two authors as well as the publishing house. You can't buy the first 4-5 books in the series in print, ebook, or audiobook. An old print copy for one of them can go for like $200 on ebay. So to find the entire audiobook series for such an insanely good price made me take the plunge and buy. I figured even if it didn't work, it was worth the attempt. But the CD came, had everything on it, and I've since converted it to listen to the Books app on my iPhone. Soooooo worth it.
Couldn't believe the great price for this series. CD came in good time, even during the holidays. The audio is slightly lower quality than expected, but once you get into the groove of listening you stop noticing.
arrive in a timely manner and works well
A rare and hard to find series of audiobooks. And a fantastic find in this case. The sound quality varies, but considering the source material, not too bad at all.
Prompt and efficient delivery (to UK).
Certainly good value for money.
