In the first book in fifty years to tackle the rise of these so-called Greek federal states, Emily Mackil charts a complex, fascinating map of how shared religious practices and long-standing economic interactions facilitated political cooperation and the emergence of a new kind of state. Mackil provides a detailed historical narrative spanning five centuries to contextualize her analyses, which focus on the three best-attested areas of mainland Greece-Boiotia, Achaia, and Aitolia. The analysis is supported by a dossier of Greek inscriptions, each text accompanied by an English translation and commentary.Hellenistic Culture and SocietyReligion, economy, and politics in the making of the Greek koinonCity-statesGreeceHistoryReligion and stateGreeceHistoryGreecePolitics and governmentTo 146 B.Cancient greece.ancient history.biographical.book club reads.christianity.discussion books.easy to read.engaging.greek city states.greek culture.greek economics.greek history.greek philosophers.greek politics.historical.history and politics.history of warfare.informative books.king alexander the great.koina history.leisure reads.page turner.political process.political science.practical politics.religion and economics.religion and politics.religious history.religious practices.rule of alexander.City-statesHistory.Religion and stateHistory.320.938Mackil Emily Maureen1973-1673594MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910811416603321Creating a common polity4037770UNINA
