Georges (history, Lake Forest College, Illinois) explores the ways ancient Greeks viewed and interacted with non-Greeks from the archaic period to the 4th century B.C. Through the works of Aeschylus, Herodotus, and Xenophon, Georges examines critical episodes in the formation of Greek ideas and attitudes concerning foreigners from Asia with whom they came into close historical contact and against whom they defined themselves especially the "barbarians" of Persia and Lydia.
