The work of the leading German historian K. Julius Beloch (1854–1929), "Greek History," remains the most comprehensive general history of Greece in the Archaic and Classical periods (8th–4th centuries BC) available in Russian. Most general courses on ancient Greek history often limit this to the history of Athens and Sparta. This work, however, provides a comprehensive history of Ancient Greece.

This is practically the only general course on Greek history in Russian, covering the developments in Miletus, Byzantium, Megara, Corinth, Sicyon, Syracuse, Acragas, Boeotia, Thessaly, Phocis, Argolis, Corfu, Euboea, Samos, Lesbos, and other Greek cities, regions, and islands.

This work provides ample details on the work of not only Solon, Peisistratus, Cleisthenes, Pericles, Leonidas, and Pausanias, but also Thrasybulus, Polycrates, Cypselus, Theagenes, Gelon, Hiero, the two Dionysiuses, Dion, Timoleon, and many other prominent historical figures.

K. Yu. Belokh was one of the first to study not only the political but also the socioeconomic history of Greece. This, however, not only did not hinder, but, on the contrary, helped him produce excellent essays on the development of Greek spiritual culture (philosophy, science, art, and religion).
