Stockton, David
THE CLASSICAL ATHENIAN DEMOCRACY
Minor shelfwear to book and DJ. Old price sticker to ffep. ; 0.88 x 8.75 x 5.69 Inches; 214 pages; The Greeks had a word for it, and the word was demokratia, a compound of demos (`the people') and kratos (`power or rule'). But it is significant that the first occurrence of the word in surviving Greek literature is in Herodotus' History, which he was writing during the third quarter of the fifth century BC. It was perhaps coined in the period following the reforms of the last decade of the sixth, which later won fame for Cleisthenes as `the man who gave the Athenians their democracy'. In 431 BC Pericles could claim that the Athenian system of government was unique, and an example to every other society in Greece. It is the object of this book to explain to the modern reader what the 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; but 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.

Stolfi Emanuele
Introduzione allo studio dei diritti greci
br. Chi si accosti all'esperienza giuridica dell'antica Grecia, si trova dinanzi uno scenario assai diverso da quello che il talento romano e una lunga tradizione ci hanno reso familiare: un mondo, per molti aspetti, decisamente "altro". Non una parola che designi il "diritto", non una vera scienza giuridica, non un chiaro discrimine tra diritto pubblico e diritto privato, quasi nessuna soluzione di continuità tra la pervasività del "politico" (e dell'etica che vi è connessa) e le tecniche del "giuridico". E tuttavia si tratta di un universo in cui presero vita straordinarie forme di razionalità, ingegneria costituzionale e analisi sociale: un'esperienza che avrebbe avuto, con l'antica Roma, una profonda osmosi culturale, e avrebbe poi esercitato un'influenza determinante sul nostro modo di concepire la vita dell'uomo entro una comunità. Questo libro intende offrire - a livello didattico, ma senza rinunciare al pensare per problemi - una ricognizione dei caratteri d'insieme che assunse la vita giuridica nelle antiche poleis (prima fra tutte Atene), e dei principali modelli che ne ha tratto il pensiero politico e giusfilosofico moderno, per poi soffermarsi su alcuni punti strategici in cui, seguendo accostamenti spesso operati già dagli antichi, il confronto con Roma risulta particolarmente significativo.

The Summer of My Greek Taverna : A Memoir
The story of a man in love with a place, a woman, and a dream. Tom Stone went to Greece one summer to write a novel -- and stayed twenty-two years. On Patmos, he fell in love with Danielle, a beautiful French painter. His novel completed and sold, he decided to stay a little longer. Seven idyllic years later, they left Patmos for Crete. When a Patmian friend Theológos called and offered him a summer partnership in his beach tavérna, The Beautiful Helen, Stone jumped at the chance -- much to the dismay of his wife, who cautioned him not to forget the old adage about Greeks bearing gifts. Her warning was well-founded: when back on Patmos, Stone quickly discovered that he was no longer a friend or patron but a competitor. He learned hard lessons about the Greeks' skill at bargaining and business while reluctantly coming to the realization that Theológos's offer of a partnership was indeed a Trojan horse. Featuring Stone's recipes, including his own Chicken Retsina and the ultimate moussaka, The Summer of My Greek Tavérna is as much a love story as it is the grand, humorous, and sometimes bittersweet adventures of an American pursuing his dreams in a foreign land, a modern-day innocent abroad. 250p.Recipe index.
