Greece on Air

Amanda Wrigley

About this book

Greece on Air' offers a discussion of the fascinating history of public engagements thought via the BBC Radio, from the birth of domestic broadcasting in the 1920s up to the 1960s. The range of programmes broadcast in this period includes engagements with ideas from and about ancient Greece in twentieth-century Britain. Wrigley draws on the vast amount of evidence that exists in the written archives to develop a full understanding of the role of the radio medium in public engagements with ancient Greece in twentieth-century Britain.
