Book Description:
This first comprehensive treatment of the political thought of ancient Greece and Rome to be published in English begins with Homer and ends in late antiquity. It discusses Plato, Aristotle and a host of other thinkers. It includes chapters which focus on the ancient context of the ideas they examine and others which explore these ideas as systems of thought resonating with modern concerns. Written by a team of distinguished scholars, this volume will long remain an accessible and authoritative guide to Greek and Roman thinking about government and community.
Review:
'It would be hard to think how this superb collection of essays about Greek and Roman political thought could be improved. ... There could be no better introduction than this collection of well-written, scholarly and absorbing essays.' Literary Review
'It is impossible to do justice here to the sweep of this volume ... It belongs on the shelf of every student of politics.' The Anglo-Hellenic Review
'... is nothing less than the very first general and comprehensive treatment of its subject in the English language ... The broad and inclusive conception of [the book] is reflected not only in the range of authors discussed, but also in the heterogeneous authorship of the volume itself ... It is not easy to do justice to a volume of this kind ... There can be no doubt that this well-organized, accessible and carefully produced volume will remain one of the standard overviews of Greek and Roman political thought for years to come.' Arctos
