Tiryns, Argos, Mycenae in Legend and Literature

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  05 January 2009

Extract

[The following paper was written originally for the last Hellenic Tour of 1939. It was delivered to an audience interested but not in the main learned, who wanted to be informed or reminded about the associations of places they were about to visit. To-day, when peaceful travel is denied to us, it may serve perhaps to recall a few pleasant memories and to awaken hopes of happier days to come.]
