Roderick Beaton’s The Greeks: A Global History is a broad historical synthesis that follows Greek-speaking peoples and Greek cultural identity across more than three millennia. Rather than treating Greece mainly as the source of classical antiquity, the book places Greeks in a wider Mediterranean, European, and global setting, from the Bronze Age Aegean through Alexander’s conquests, the Roman and Byzantine worlds, Ottoman rule, the modern nation-state, and the diaspora. Its genre is accessible narrative history, written for general readers while drawing on the author’s long expertise in Greek culture and literature. The purpose is to explain continuity without suggesting that Greek identity stayed unchanged. Beaton emphasizes adaptation, mobility, language, religion, empire, and memory as forces that repeatedly remade what it meant to be Greek. The result is a corrective to histories that stop at antiquity and a guide to seeing modern Greece as part of a much longer global story.
