Description

Explore the complex relationship between Athenian rhetoric and the realities of empire in this Routledge monograph. This study examines the discrepancies between Thucydides' account of the Peloponnesian War and the self-representation found in Greek tragedy, funeral orations, and public art. Author Mills investigates the contradiction between actual Athenian actions and how the city presented its power to the public. The book argues that Thucydides' cynical and critical view of the Athenian empire differs from the popular education provided to citizens through drama and public monuments. This work offers a deep look into how Athenian identity and imperial lessons were taught through various media in the fifth century.
