A COMPANION TO GREEK AND ROMAN POLITICAL THOUGHT

Justice, virtue, and citizenship were at the center of political life in ancient Greece and Rome and were frequently discussed by classical poets, historians, and philosophers. This Companion illuminates Greek and Roman political thought in all its range, diversity, and depth. Thirty-four essays from leading scholars in history, classics, philosophy, and political science provide stimulating discussions of classical political thought, ranging from the Archaic Greek epics to the final days of the Roman Empire and beyond. These essays strike a judicious yet thought-provoking balance between theoretical and historical perspectives.

A Companion to Greek and Roman Political Thought is an authoritative guide to the ancient Greek and Roman political questions that continue to shape and challenge the modern world.

The editor is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Toronto. The author of Greed and Injustice in Classical Athens (Princeton, 2001) and Greek Political Thought (Blackwell, 2006), he specializes in the history of political thought.
