Prologue In our age of complexities, an era where every step forward means greater progress, we sel¬ dom take time to retreat to the lands of antiquity which form the basis of our classical heritage — Greece and Rome. As a cultured nation America owes a great debt to these an¬ cient civilizations which, with no example to emulate, created and sustained a culture so last¬ ing that today, 4000 miles and 4000 years later, we still find evidence of it. One strong influence is seen in our modern English lan¬ guage, in which a very large percentage of words have either a Latin or a Greek derivative. These classical languages live on as the basis of modern lan¬ guages, creating a curious blend of the old and the new. Such great thinkers as Plato, Aristotle, and Socrates, repre¬ senting but a few of the Greek and Roman contributions to philosophical thought, took great steps forward as they strove to attain intellectual maturity. Their thoughts and ideas formed a path which has been well-trodden by eager students through the ages. Our tribute to Greece and Rome can not be complete without mentioning their ac¬ complishments in the field of literature. Fanciful myths and tales of legend and lore, have given us a wealth of classical tradition, and a storehouse of valuable reading experience. In this fifth edition we have attempted to capture, in thought and picture, the Spirit of those to whom we are indebted. It is our hope that the Spartan Spirit of Paramus High School and the Spartan Spirit of long ago can step forward to meet the future side by side.
