Original Blue Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 1988. xv, 230pp. B&W maps. "Plutarch's Life of Phocion has not been closely analysed since 1840. Laurence Trittle's study, first published in 1988, offers a new assessment of this significant and complex personality, whilst illuminating the political climate in which he thrived. Though often thought to be of humble origin, Phocion was educated in Plato's Academy, rose to prominence in the innermost circles of Athenian political life, and was renowned as a soldier throughout the Greek world. Professor Trittle traces the origins and development of the historical tradition that so shaped an image of the "Good" Phocion, so that his actual achievements as a politician and general were all but lost. He can thus now be seen in the context of fourth-century Athens: as a major political leader, a worthy opponent of Philip of Macedon, and a champion of a politics of justice rather than of the traditional politics of enmity." Book and unclipped dust jacket are in excellent condition, with no inscriptions.

Though often thought to be poor and of humble origin. Phocion was educated in Platos Academy, was prominent in the innermost circles of Athenian society and politics, and was known as a soldier throughout the Greek World. Plutarchs Life of Phocion has not been closely analysed since 1840; by examining the text in detail, this present study gives a totally new assessment of this significant and complex personality, while shedding important light on the history of fourth-century Athens. The author traces the origins and development of the historical tradition that so shaped an image of the Good Phocion that his actual achievements as politician and general were all but lost. Here, rescued from obscurity, Phocion can now be seen in the context of fourth-century Athens: as a major political leader, as a worthy opponent of Philip of Macedon, and as a champion of a politics of justice rather than of the traditional politics of enmity. / CONTENTS List of Diagrams and Maps Preface Abbreviations Introduction 1.
