Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condición: Excelente. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Excelente. Breve pero incisivo ensayo de carácter histórico y político en el que Frederick H. Cramer recupera la figura de Demóstenes como símbolo retórico y moral para reflexionar sobre el aislacionismo en el mundo contemporáneo. Lejos de una simple evocación clásica, el autor utiliza al orador ateniense como punto de partida para trazar un paralelismo entre la crisis de las polis griegas frente al avance macedónico y las tensiones internacionales del siglo XX. El texto propone una lectura en clave moderna del discurso político antiguo, subrayando la vigencia de ciertos dilemas: la defensa de la libertad frente a la pasividad, el papel de la palabra como herramienta de acción y la responsabilidad de las naciones ante los conflictos globales. En este sentido, el ensayo funciona tanto como interpretación histórica como intervención ideológica, inscripta en el clima previo a la consolidación de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La escritura es concisa, argumentativa y de tono elevado, con una clara impronta humanista que vincula tradición clásica y actualidad. Cramer no se limita a la erudición: busca provocar una toma de posición, alertando sobre los riesgos del repliegue político y la indiferencia ante los procesos históricos en curso. Demóstenes redivivo constituye así un testimonio intelectual de su tiempo, donde la Antigüedad clásica es convocada como espejo crítico del presente. Ficha técnica Autor: Frederick H.

In Astrology in Roman Law and Politics, historian Frederick H. Cramer explores how astrological belief influenced Roman governance, imperial authority, and legal regulation from the late Republic through the early Empire. Drawing on a wide range of ancient sources, the book examines the social status of astrologers, their relationships with emperors and elites, and the laws enacted to control or suppress astrological practice. Highly regarded for its interdisciplinary approach, this work remains an essential reference for scholars and readers interested in Roman history, ancient law, political culture, and the historical role of astrology.
