Hellenistic
The Hellenistic Age is the transformation of Greek society from the localized and introverted city-states to an open culture that included the entire eastern Mediterranean, and Southwest Asia. While the Hellenistic world incorporated a number of people, Greek thinking, mores, and life dominated the public affairs of the time. All aspects of culture took a Greek hue, with the Greek talk being established as the official language of the Hellenistic world. The art and literature of the era were transformed accordingly. Instead of the last preoccupation with the Ideal, Hellenistic art relied on the Real. Depictions of man in both art and literature revolved around exuberant, and often amusing themes that for the most part explored the daily life and the emotional world of humans and gods.
