Some foxing to textblock. Rubbing to wraps. Creasing to spine. ; Contains: Aristotle's The Constitution of Athens; Xenophon's The Politeia of the Spartans; The Constitution of the Athenians ascribed to Xenophon the Orator; The Boeotian Constitution from the Oxyrhynchus Historian; 320 pages; <DIV>Three treatises survive from classical Greece under the loose title <i>Politeiai</i> (Constitutions) which are unique in character and indispensable to any student of the period. The longest and most important is Aristotle's <i>Constitution of Athens</i> which is both a history of Athenian constitutional development and a survey of the constitutional machinery of Aristotle's own day.<br>The second, by Xenophon, is an account of the Spartan social and educational system, and the third, also attributed to Xenophon, <i>The Constitution of the Athenians,</i> though probably by an earlier author, is the first example in history of political pamphleteering.<br>Dr. Moore has newly translated all three of these documents and an additional fragment <i>The Boeotian Constitution</i> written in the fourth century B. C. and the only surviving account of a genuinely oligarchic regime of the period.<br>To these much needed, scholarly translations Dr. Moore has added brilliant introductions and commentaries which evaluate the documents, illumine their significance, and provide the background information which the writers assumed their readers to possess.<br>In bringing together, translating, and annotating these constitutional documents from ancient Greece, Dr. Moore has produced an authoritative work of the highest scholarship which will place all students of constitutional history and of the Ancient World in his debt.</div>

Gutes Ex.; Einband gering berieben; hs. Besitzvermerk auf Vorsatz. - Latein; griechisch. - Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / Poat infelicem in Hellesponto pugnam Athenienses isdem in loeia, cum Alcibiadea venisset subsidio, prospera fortuna utuntur. Tissaphernes in Hellespontum profectus Alcibiadem comprehensum in custodiam conicit: unde ille nootu elapsus petit Clazomenas, Thrasyllus Athenas navigat ad novas copias et naves petendas. Cum Laoedaemonii Athenienaea denuo ag-gredi vellent, his auxilio venit Alcibiades, quo duce pugna ad Cyzioum feliciter pugnata est, in qua cecidit Mindarus. Inde cum Athenienses e Cyzico, Perintho, Selybria pecuniaa coegis-sent, munita Chrysopoli portorinm instituerunt. Adflictis Lace-daemoniorum rebus succurrit Pharnabazus. Interim praetori-bus Syracusanorum domi abrogatum imperium: Thaso eiecti qui rebus Lacedaemoniorum studebant: Athenis autem Agis ad-movet exercitum, quem minus armis quam minis Athenienses repellunt. Eodem anno Carthaginienses magno exercitu ag-gressi duaa urbea Graeeaa ceperunt (c. 1). Thrasyllus cum classe Samum petit. Inde in Asia nonnulla feliciter gerit, sed Ephesum aggressus a Tissapherne et Syracusania defensaa magna clade afficitur. Rursua ad Lesbum navibua quattuor Syracusanorum captis navigavit Sestum, ubi reliquae Athe-niensium copiae erant. Hiuc universus exercitus Lampaacum se contulit ad hiberna, in quibua Alcibiade duce adveraus Abydum expeditione Buscepta Pharnabazum vincunt et aliia locia Persarum terra8 vastant (c. 2). Atheniensea Chalcedonem, quae ad Lacedaemonioa defecerat, oppugnant. Eam infeliciter defendere conatur Hippocratea Lacedaemoniorum harmosta. Quare cum hic in pugua occidieset, Athenien8es cum Chalce-doniis et Pharnabazo, qui his auxilio venerat, pacem ineuut. Mox eodein modo Byzantium oppugnant. a Laoedaemoniia occupatum: quod cum capi non potuisset, a Byzantiia ipsis et Lacedaemoniis quibusdam absente Clearcho harmosta in manus … (Vorwort) / ... Xenophons Werke, insbesondere die sokratischen Schriften und die Anabasis, waren unter anderem wegen ihrer nüchtern-klaren Sprache beliebt (er wurde unter anderem von Marcus Tullius Cicero gelesen und gelobt); er bleibt auch bis heute ein wichtiges Stilvorbild für das attische Griechisch. Da Xenophon teilweise Augenzeuge der berichteten Ereignisse war, ist er außerdem eine wichtige Quelle für die griechische Geschichte des 4. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. und hat in neuerer Zeit wieder das Interesse der Forschung erregt. ... (wiki)
