What five stages did ancient Greek culture go through?

The first stage: Crete civilization (in Crete, the palace inside has a complete underground waterway sanitation system, which shocked the world at that time)

The second stage: Mycenae civilization (that is, during the Trojan War)

The third stage: the dark period (the era of Homer's life)

The fourth stage: classical civilization (5th-4th century BC).

The fifth stage: the era of Macedonian rule (from the late 4th century BC to the middle 2nd century BC).

Characteristics of ancient Greek culture:

First, idealism.

An important aesthetic thought in ancient Greece is that harmony is beauty. The ancient Greeks put forward the idea of golden ratio very early and applied it to painting and sculpture.

Second, humanism.

The core idea of the Renaissance is that humanism is by no means accidental. Ancient Greek culture played an important role. Greeks attach importance to personal values and pursue freedom and enjoyment. There are often demigod heroes in Greek mythology, such as Heracles, theseus, Poerxiusi, etc. There is no need to mention them. God, like people, pursues femininity and is competitive.

Third, rationalism.

The Greeks are unrestrained and have the so-called "Dionysian sentiment". However, compared with other ethnic groups, the rational color is still more prominent. The ancient Hebrews believed in God, while the Egyptians revered the sun god.

Fourth, tragedy.

The contradiction between one's own pursuit and fate has formed a tragedy. Strictly speaking, every nation has a tragedy, but Greece is the strongest, and it seems that only Japan is close. Homer's epic is a representative of tragedy. Achilles and Hecktor are two typical tragic figures. The former is the contradiction between self-pursuit and destiny, while the latter is the contradiction between self-thought and national mission. I won't introduce it here.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) is magnificent.

Tragedy lies not in writing sadness, but in writing tragic and majestic. Greek epic plays are mostly heroic and lyrical. The language is high and the sentence pattern is short. The Parthenon, a Greek building, is tall and spectacular, and the image of the sculpture "Stone Thrower" is strong and handsome, which reflects this.
