{"product_id":"the-classical-athenian-democracy","title":"The Classical Athenian Democracy","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt is the object of this book to explain to the modern reader what institutions of the classical Athenian democracy were  how they worked and what assumptions underlay them. It is principally concerned with the fully-developed democracy of the post-Ephialtic period. A chapter is devoted to tracing the broad development of the Athenian constitution  from the reforms of Solon in the early sixth century to those of Ephialtes in the late 460s  so that the developed democracy can be seen in its proper historical context. Stockton incorporates recent important work by historians  epigraphists and archaeologists into his study which is easily accessible to the sixth-form and first-year undergraduate student as well as the interested general reader as a result of the translation of all Greek  explanation of difficult terminology and full suggestions for further reading in endnotes to each chapter.
