The volume brings a kind of companion to the subject of study of archaeology and history of Late Mycenaean to Geometric Greece and of the koine of Early Iron Age Geometric styles in Europe and Upper Eurasia, ca 1300-700 BC, in relation to their Near Eastern neighbours. The age around the so-called axial period of human history, of transition from Bronze to Iron Age, from the pre-philosophical to philosophical mind, from mythical level of human thought to logos, is discussed in the frame of combining several approaches into a synthetic picture revisiting the previous books and papers by the author, in an attempt to combine the witness of archaeological sources with the worlds of Homer and Hesiod, and the first private Phoenician and Greek merchant ventures. It surveys the birth of Greek autonomous city states, of its art and its free citizens. The book contains many maps and drawings illustrating the discussed subjects, black and white and colour photographs.

La 4ème de couv. indique : "Les IXe et VIIIe siècles av. J.-C. constituent une période décisive, dite Géométrique, de l'histoire du monde grec antique. Ils ont vu l'émergence de la cité-État, forme politique originale, porteuse de mutations essentielles pour son histoire et sa culture. À cette même époque, les Grecs explorent le pourtour de la Méditerranée et commencent à coloniser certains sites. Or, les seuls documents littéraires contemporains dont nous disposons sont les poèmes d'Homère (l'Iliade, l'Odyssée) et d'Hésiode (La Théogonie, Les travaux et les jours). Ces textes, les plus anciens de la littérature grecque, dont est proposée ici une analyse précise, constituent des témoignages majeurs de l'histoire de la culture grecque antique. Ils révèlent les fondements des sociétés grecques et laissent voir un ensemble de valeurs, de comportements et de pratiques communautaires destinés à forger de manière durable l'identité du citoyen grec. Ils permettent également de souligner l'interaction entre poésie et réalité historique : le héros homérique comme le paysan hésiodique sont à la base de la vision que les Grecs ont d'eux-mêmes et du monde qui les entoure.".
