The Athenian Nation

About The Athenian Nation

Challenges the assumption that ancient Athens is best understood as a polis. This book recasts our understanding of Athenian political and social life. It demonstrates that ancient sources referred to Athens not only as a polis, but also as a 'nation' (ethnos), and that Athens did encompass the characteristics now used to identify a 'nation.'
