Produktinformationen "Pericles"
A nuanced portrait of ancient Athens's boldest statesman and his enduring cultural legacy. Pericles, the Athenian statesman, was a towering figure of his era, renowned for promoting Athenian democracy, shaping the Athenian Empire, and championing the arts, notably through the Parthenon's creation. Born to aristocracy, he was a fervent democrat, a masterful demagogue in the ancient sense, and an eccentric in his personal life. Paul Cartledge explores Pericles' life, examines Athenian history, and provides an insightful account of Pericles' political career, his role in Athens's building program, his intellectual connections, and his love life. Cartledge further considers Pericles' reputation in the theater and how he has been represented over the centuries from antiquity to the present day. This book is a nuanced, illuminating, and lively portrayal of a remarkable politician.
