Thucydides' work is widely recognized as an argument for democratic thought. Plato's work, an essential tract in western philosophy, is often accused of being anti-democratic. This book reconstructs a fundamental understanding of the conflict between the political thought and action of Socrates and Athens. It challenges prior commentary on three essential fronts. 330 8 $aFirst, it explores the extent to which imperial ambition and competition subvert Athenian democracy. Second, it explores the extent to which Socrates' labors oppose the ambition and competition inherent in Athenian imperialism. Finally, it explores the extent to which Socratic morality represents a threat to post-restoration Athenian ambition."--Jacket. 606 $aDemocracy$zGreece$zAthens 608 $aTrials, litigation, etc.$2fast 615 0$aDemocracy 676 $a320.938/5/09014 700 $aGreen$b Ricky K.$f1958-$0899683 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910345136303321 996 $aDemocratic virtue in the trial and death of Socrates$92010168 997 $aUNINA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
