Personally, I feel without their philosophers, we may not have modern science/philosophy today. But, other than that, what do you personally feel Greeks have brought to you? Art, Theater, music?

Best answer:

Answer by Smotyn
I feel the biggest impact is the idea of cities.

The Greeks were arguably the first to congregate in areas in the masses, to build themselves into a city so that they could spend their time developing ideas and improving the race rather than trying to spend all their time surviving.

The Greeks saw cities as an escape from the wild and this allowed development within the human species.

I would say that this is perhaps the biggest impact of the ancient Greeks as it directly effects the modern world.

Do you think that ancient philosophers were wiser?

Best answer:

Answer by I try
Maybe in their thought patterns, but we have allot more knowledge to work with now, then what they had back then…

They had their examples, but we have new ones, and the old ones…the more we know, the more we have to work with.

so as the ancient philosophers might say…define superior?
