Politics and the Street in Democratic Athens
ISBN: 9781107041684 / Angielski / Twarda / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is the first in-depth study of the classical Athenian public sphere.

These represented the Athenian 'street', an informal political space that was seen as qualitatively different from the institutional space of the assembly, the council and the courts where elite orators held sway. The book explores how...
