CHAPTER VI THE REALISATION OF DEMOCRACY: ATHENS I SAID at the end of the last chapter that Athena alone, of all the City-States of antiquityJ solved for a time the problem of freely developing the talent of the individual, while maintaining fully that identification of the individual with the State which was the very essence of Greek social life, j This proposition I wish to prove and explain in the present chapter. By keeping steadily to it, we shall obtain, I believe, the best idea of such "good life " as it was possible for the City-State to realise; and we shall learn 'to identify that "good life " with the form and spirit of Democracy, the last phase taken by this kind of social union in the course of its natural development, before decay set in. I say the form and spirit of Democracy; for though Democracy is often treated as a form of government only,1 we surely may not be content so to treat it, if we are really bent on understanding what the TToTu? in its perfection could do for the education of mankind. 1 E.g. by Sir H. Maine in Popular Government, oh. i. [Let us start by taking as a text some memorable words of the statesman who above all other Athenians, in the golden days of Athens, perceived what the State might do for the individual, and the individual for the State, towards the realisation of "the good life." When Athens at last became involved in war with Sparta, at the funeral of the DEGREES first victims of battle Pericles was chosen to deliver 'V an oration over them, of which Thucydides the historian, himself doubtless among the audience, has preserved for us the spirit and the thoughts in his own weighty and subtle phraseology. One passage in this immortal speech seems to embody in living words the statesman's idea of...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City-State of the Greeks and Romans: A Survey, Introductory to the Study of Ancient History Such a biography had indeed already been written, and by a man of genius, the late Fustel de Coulanges; but La Gite' Antique, brilliant as it is, is a book of one idea, and did not exactly answer the purpose I proposed to myself. I wished simply to sketch the history of the city-state, without reference to any particular view of the origin oi its institutions.

Download or read book The Greek City States written by P. J. Rhodes and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-04-26 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political activity and political thinking began in the cities and other states of ancient Greece, and terms such as tyranny, aristocracy, oligarchy, democracy and politics itself are Greek words for concepts first discussed in Greece. Rhodes presents in translation a selection of texts illustrating the formal mechanisms and informal workings of the Greek states in all their variety. From the states described by Homer out of which the classical Greeks believed their states had developed, through the archaic period which saw the rise and fall of tyrants and the gradual broadening of citizen bodies, to the classical period of the fifth and fourth centuries, Rhodes also looks beyond that to the Hellenistic and Roman periods in which the Greeks tried to preserve their way of life in a world of great powers. For this second edition the book has been thoroughly revised and three new chapters added.
Download or read book Early Greek Philosophy written by Various and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2002-11-26 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The works collected in this volume form the true foundation of Western philosophy—the base upon which Plato and Aristotle and their successors would eventually build. Yet the importance of the Pre-Socratics thinkers lies less in their influence—great though that was—than in their astonishing intellectual ambition and imaginative reach. Zeno's dizzying 'proofs' that motion is impossible; the extraordinary atomic theories of Democritus; the haunting and enigmatic epigrams of Heraclitus; and the maxims of Alcmaeon: fragmentary as they often are, the thoughts of these philosophers seem strikingly modern in their concern to forge a truly scientific vocabulary and way of reasoning.
