The Parian Chronicle, also known as The Chronicle of the Arundelian Marbles, is a historical book authored by Joseph Robertson and originally published in 1788. The book focuses on the Parian Chronicle, which is a chronological record of events that took place in Greece from the earliest times to the end of the Peloponnesian War. The Parian Chronicle is inscribed on a marble slab that was discovered on the Greek island of Paros in the 17th century. The Arundelian Marbles, on the other hand, are a collection of ancient Greek inscriptions that were brought to England in the early 17th century by Thomas Howard, the Earl of Arundel. Robertson's book provides a detailed analysis of the Parian Chronicle and the Arundelian Marbles. He delves into the historical significance of the inscriptions and their relevance to ancient Greek history. The book also includes translations of the inscriptions and an extensive commentary on their content.Overall, The Parian Chronicle is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Greek history and the study of historical inscriptions. Robertson's thorough analysis and commentary provide a comprehensive understanding of the Parian Chronicle and the Arundelian Marbles, making this book an essential read for scholars and enthusiasts alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
