About this book

Charles Kingsley's "Alexandria and Her Schools" offers an engrossing investigation into the intellectual and cultural hub of classical Alexandria. The vital role the city played in the advancement of Hellenistic philosophy, literature, and science is traced in Kingsley's erudite yet approachable account. Scholars have chosen this work because it is significant to culture and contributes to our understanding of civilization. In the United States of America and possibly other countries, it is in the public domain.
