Carsten Colpe examines an epoch of de-Hellenization. This epoch can be most clearly recognized by the decline of the use of the Greek language. However in institutions, the arts, religion, languages and literature as well there was a powerful Greek impetus, which then declined gradually.

Carsten Colpe examines an epoch of de-Hellenization, one which is important from the standpoint of cultural history but which has often been misjudged. This epoch can be most clearly recognized by the decline of the use of the Greek language. However in institutions, the arts, religion, languages and literature as well there was a powerful Greek impetus, which then declined gradually. The history of de-Hellenization is put into the terms of a phenomenology which is divided into 21 sections. These range from the golden age of Hellenism in the 3rd/2nd century BC and the substantial Byzantine and Asiatic documents which support this to the rise of Hellenism in northern India in the 17th century.
