Probabilmente scritto da uno studente di Aristotele, La Costituzione ateniese è sia una storia che un'analisi del meccanismo politico di Atene tra il settimo e il quarto secolo a.C., che si erge come modello di democrazia in un'epoca in cui le città-stato vivevano sotto diversi tipi di governo. Lo scrittore racconta le principali riforme di Solone, il governo del tiranno Pisistrato e dei suoi figli, l'emergere della democrazia in cui il potere era condiviso da tutti i cittadini maschi liberi e la leadership di Pericle e dei demagoghi che lo seguirono. Prosegue esaminando l'amministrazione della città ai suoi tempi: il consiglio, i funzionari e il sistema giudiziario. Per le sue informazioni sullo sviluppo di Atene e su come funzionava la democrazia, La Costituzione ateniese è una fonte inestimabile di conoscenza sulla città-stato ateniese.

Aristotle was born in Macedonia in 384 bc. For twenty years he studied at Athens in the academy of Plato, before becoming tutor of the young Alexander the Great. When Alexander became king of Macedonia in 336, Aristotle returned to Athens and founded his own school and research institute, the Lyceum. Aristotle fled to Calcis in 323 in the aftermath of Alexander's death, where he died a year later.
P. J. Rhodes is Professor of Ancient History at Durham University, and is a Fellow of the British Academy. His major work is Commentary on the Aristotelian Athenation Politeia.

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. Probably written by a student of Aristotle, The Athenian Constitution is both a history and an analysis of Athens' political machinery between the seventh and fourth centuries BC, which stands as a model of democracy at a time when city-states lived under differing kinds of government. The writer recounts the major reforms of Solon, the rule of the tyrant Pisistratus and his sons, the emergence of the democracy in which power was shared by all free male citizens, and the leadership of Pericles and the demagogues who followed him. He goes on to examine the city's administration in his own time - the council, the officials and the judicial system. For its information on Athens' development and how the democracy worked, The Athenian Constitution is an invaluable source of knowledge about the Athenian city-state. Codice articolo 00108858177
