Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the rhetoric of the Athenian empire, this study examines Thucydides' portrayal of the Peloponnesian War and contrasts it with representations in tragedy, funeral orations, and public art. It highlights the discrepancies between Thucydides' critical assessment of Athens and the more glorified depictions found in contemporary cultural expressions, offering insights into the complexities of Athenian identity and the narratives that shaped its legacy.
