Abstract

Célébrées pour leurs idéaux politiques égalitaires, les cités grecques sont, de fait, des sociétés très hiérarchisées. Si les inégalités de genre et de fortune y sont anciennes, celle fondée sur le droit naît au VIe siècle avant J.-C, avec l'apparition de statuts personnels. L'essentiel du pouvoir et de la valeur sociale est alors accaparé par une minorité : les hommes citoyens fortunés. Face à eux, les autres groupes sociaux sont placés et pensés en position d'infériorité. Hommes et femmes, citoyens et étrangers, riches et pauvres, libres et esclaves se nourrissent, se logent, s'habillent, s'enterrent, se réunissent ou se distraient selon des modalités différentes. Les pratiques éducatives, les usages matrimoniaux ou le contrôle des naissances sont pensés par les élites comme autant de stratégies de reproduction.Mais si l'essentiel de la vie sociale s'organise au bénéfice des plus fortunés, la société n'est pas pour autant inerte. La possibilité de gravir l'échelle sociale existe bel et bien, qu'il s'agisse de s'enrichir ou d'accéder à un statut plus favorable. En cela, la cité est aussi un espace d'opportunités. Cet ouvrage est une invitation à pénétrer au coeur du jeu social qui anime la Grèce antique, cosmopolite, stratifiée et résolument dynamique.

Abstract

The first volume is devoted to the period which begins with the era of Greek colonization and ends with the close of the Peloponnesian War in 404 B. C. Charles Fornara has gathered together material compiled from inscriptions, ancient encyclopedias, scholia, and similar sources. The material, much of it translated by him for the first time, covers not only events of national significance - wars and treaties, the founding of towns and colonies, the dedication of temples - but also presents such records of daily life as ration lists, wine trade regulations, inventories of treasure, drinking songs, and financial records. The documents are accompanied by a brief commentary, which is basically intended to clarify obscurities in the text. An extensive glossary and indexes explain obscure terms of Greek social and governmental structure and permit detailed prosopographical analysis. This 1983 book will be welcomed by students and teachers of ancient history.

Abstract

Every Athenian alliance, every declaration of war, and every peace treaty was instituted by a decision of the assembly, where citizens voted after listening to speeches that presented varied and often opposing arguments about the best course of action. The fifteen preserved assembly speeches of the mid-fourth century BC thus provide an unparalleled body of evidence for the way that Athenians thought and felt about interstate relations: to understand this body of oratory is to understand how the Athenians of that period made decisions about war and peace. This book provides a comprehensive treatment of this subject. It deploys insights from a range of fields, from anthropology to international relations theory, in order not only to describe Athenian thinking, but also to explain it. Athenian thinking turns out to have been complex, sophisticated, and surprisingly familiar both in its virtues and its flaws.
