The Acropolis Magazine
In ancient Athens the Acropolis, literally meaning the High City, was the place which supported the highest ideals of the people.
The Acropolis magazine is inspired by this concept and aims to share eclectic content, combining all the major endeavours of philosophy, art, science, education and culture.
Issue 11, closes out 2022 with our special Cultures and Civilisations Edition. Explore some of the greatest discoveries, examples and teachings from the ancient world.
From ancient Egypt to Mesoamerica, Greek Tragedy to the phenomenon of Sacred Marriage, from the mysteries of Sufism to the depths of Shintoism – we hope you get as much out of reading it as we did putting it together!
