Book Price $0 : At The End Of The Fifth Century BC, The Peloponnesian War Resulted In Athens' Shattering Defeat By Sparta. Taking Advantage Of The Debacle, A Commission Of Thirty Athenians Abolished The Democratic Institutions That For A Century Had Governed The Political Life Of The City And Precipitated A Year-long Civil War. By Autumn 403 BC, Democracy Was Restored. Inspired By The Model Of The Ancient Chorus, This Strikingly Innovative Book Interprets A Crucial Moment In Classical History Through The Prism Of Ten Remarkable Individuals And The Shifting Groups Which Formed Around Them. The Former Include More Familiar Names Like The Multifaceted Sokrates, The Oligarch Kritias And The Rhetorician Lysias, But Also Lesser-known Figures Like The Scribe Nikomachos, The Former Slave Gerys And The Priestess Lysimakhe. What Leads A Community To Tear Itself Apart, Even Disintegrate, Then Rebuild Itself? This Question, Explored Through Profound Reflection On The Past, Echoes Our Tormented Present.
