This report was part of a series of research studies, which had been commissioned three years earlier. The State department acknowledged receipt of the report and expressed its appreciation by stating that it had contributed materially to the Department's understanding of Turkish mentality and institutions during the present period of transition.

Some scuffing to textblock and front wrap. Tiny crease to lower corner of wraps. Else minor shelfwear. ; Xv, 283pp. Father-son conflict was for the Athenians a topic of widespread interest that touched the core of both family and political life, particularly during times of social upheaval. In this vivid account of the intermingling of politics and the private sphere in classical Athens, Barry Strauss explores the tensions experienced by a society that cherished both youthful independence and paternal authority. He examines father-son relations within the Athenian family and the way these relations were represented in a wide variety of political and literary texts. His inquiry reveals that representations of patricide, father beating, and son murdering did not necessarily coincide with actual instances but rather served as metaphors for intergenerational tensions fueled by democracy, the sophists, and the Peloponnesian War. ; 283 pages
