The book is articulated around the identification of a concrete problem: the need for studies that critically discuss Athenian democracy, seen as a daily problem and practice, based on its staseis (crises) and metabolai (changes), and whose solutions and strategies may still contribute to the reflection on the social, intellectual and ethical-political challenges of contemporary democracy.Studi e saggi (Florence, Italy)Chapter Forms of government and rhetoricChapter Damasias and ThalesCrises (Staseis) and Changes (Metabolai) : Athenian Democracy in the MakingChapter Nature and natural phenomena in Thucydides’ The Peloponnesian WarChapter The Chapter Uniting past and presentChapter Democracy under the kothornosCrises DemocracyHistoryDemocracyHistory.321.8Leão Delfim FerreiraSebastiani Breno BattistinNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910635098603321Crises (Staseis) and Changes (Metabolai)2998740UNINA
