Ranging from Hellenistic pastoral to the contemporary counterculture activities of the "Greens," the essays in this volume underscore the complexity of simplicity. Whether the simple life is located in a culture's past or in its future, in a secluded corner or beyond society's boundaries, it remains a fascinating subject for discussion.
