Description

[Thomas Spencer Jerome Lectures] "The Rise and Fall of States According to Greek Authors is a masterful survey of the manner in which Greek historians, from Herodotus to Polybius, explained the conditions of a state's success and the dangers of power. Both the differences and the similarities among the major authors' ideas are carefully analyzed: the changing notions of excess, or hybris; the common stress on public morality; and the value of goodwill." 100p.
