About The Book

Ancient Greece was a place of tremendous political experiment and innovation and it was here too that the first serious political thinkers emerged. Using carefully selected case-studies in this book Professor Cartledge investigates the dynamic interaction between ancient Greek political thought and practice from early historic times to the early Roman Empire. Of concern throughout are three major issues: first the relationship of political thought and practice; second the relevance of class and status to explaining political behaviour and thinking; third democracy - its invention development and expansion and extinction prior to its recent resuscitation and even apotheosis. In addition monarchy in various forms and at different periods and the peculiar political structures of Sparta are treated in detail over a chronological range extending from Homer to Plutarch. The book provides an introduction to the topic for all students and non-specialists who appreciate the continued relevance of ancient Greece to political theory and practice today.
