Book A History of Greece  Vol  2 of 4

Download or read book A History of Greece Vol 2 of 4 written by George Grote and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 864 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Greece, Vol. 2 of 4: From the Earliest Period to the Close of the Generation Contemporary With Alexander the GreatSuch was the first Athenian democracy, engendered as well by the reaction against Hippias and his dynasty as by the memorable part' ncrsbip, whether spontaneous or compulsory, between Kleisthenes and the unfranchised multitude. It is to be distinguished both from the mitigated oligarchy established by Solon before, and from the full-grown and symmetrical democracy which prevailed afterward from the beginning of the Peloponnesian war, toward the close of the career of Perikles. It was indeed a striking revolution, impressed upon the citizen not less by the sentiments to which it appealed than by the visible change which it made in political and social life. He saw himself niarshaled in the ranks of hoplites alongside of new companions in arms - he was enrolled in a new register, and his prop erty in a new schedule, in his deme and by his demarch, an officer before unknown - he found the year distributed afresh, for all legal purposes, into ten parts bearing the name of prytanies, each marked by a solemn and free - spoken ekklesia at which he had a right to be present - his ekklesia was convoked and presided by senators called prytanes, members of a senate novel both as to number and distribu tion - his political duties were now performed as member of a tribe, designated by a name not before pronounced in common Attic life, connected with one of ten heroes whose statues he now for the first time saw in the agora, and associating him with fellow-tribemen from all parts of Attica. All these and many others were sensible novelties felt in the daily proceedings of the citizen. But the great novelty of all was the authentic recognition of the ten new tribes as a sovereign Demos or people, apart from all specialties of phratric or gentile origin, with free speech and equal law; retaining no distinc tion except the four classes of the Solonian property-schedule with their gradations of eligibility. To a considerable proportion of citi zens this great novelty was still farther endeared by the fact that it had raised them out of the degraded position of metics and slaves; while to the large majority of all the citizens. It furnished a splendid political idea, profoundly impressive to the Greek mind - capable of calling forth the most ardent attachment as well as the most devoted sense of active obligation and obedience. We have now to see how their newly-created patriotism manifested itself.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Buckets from an English Sea

Download or read book Buckets from an English Sea written by Louis Barry Rosenblatt and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "...As author Lou Rosenblatt explains, the year 1832 in Darwin's life was crucial for the development of his theory of evolution. A century and a half of study of Darwin, the man, and his work, including close readings of his books, notebooks, letters, and even the books he read, has led to a working appreciation of his genius. The "success" of this account has, however, kept us from seeing several important issues: most notably, why did he pursue evolution in the first place? While this book is neither an almanac of 1832, nor a biography of Charles Darwin (though both are at the heart of Rosenblatt's work), Buckets from an English Sea offers a unique take on the factors that shaped Darwin's legendary theory and the making of him as a scientist..."--Dust jacket.

Book Athenian Ostracism and its Original Purpose

Download or read book Athenian Ostracism and its Original Purpose written by Marek Węcowski and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-17 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ostracism is by far the most emblematic institution of ancient Athenian democracy. This volume offers a reassessment of recently found ostraka (or potsherds, on which the names of the 'candidates' for exile were inscribed by citizens) from several Greek cities outside Athens, a thorough reconstruction of the history and of the procedure of ostracism in Athens, and a comprehensive account of the political circumstances of the introduction of the law on ostracism by Cleisthenes in 508/507 BCE. Marek Węcowski's original study focuses not only on the final stage, the day of the vote, but on the entire operation and procedure of ostracisation. Tracing the logic of the political play in Athens between the opening and final stages of ostracism, Węcowski argues that Athenian ostracism was a mechanism devised to impose compromise on the main players in Athenian political life, thereby avoiding the punishment of political elites by exile of leading politicians resulting from unpredictable votes by the citizenry. To support this hypothesis, Węcowski turns to the theory of the 'evolution of cooperation' as formulated by the American mathematician and political scientist Robert Axelrod based on the iterated prisoner's dilemma in game theory, applied as a probabilistic analogy to the dynamics of Athenian political life under democracy.
