Patronage and its avoidance in classical Athens
A bibliography on the subject of patronage in the ancient Greek world would be brief almost to the point of non-existence. Outside the specialist areas of literary and artistic patronage (see, for example, Webster 1972 , Roberts 1983 , 148-208), I am not aware of a single book or article having as its main or even subsidiary theme the relationship between patron and client in classical Greece. A glance at the indexes of the usual socio-economic h…
Warfare, economy, and democracy in classical Athens 1
The dangers of a modernizing approach to Greek warfare are presumably as serious as the more familiar anachronism of treating the ancient economy as if it were capitalist. Both types of modernism are found fused together in theories of the ‘fourth-century crisis’. This chapter emulates (however inadequately) colleagues in Roman history by constructing a model in which warfare feeds back into internal economic and political structures. An addition…
How to Do Things with History
How to Do Things with History is a collection of essays that explores current and future approaches to the study of ancient Greek cultural history. Rather than focus directly on methodology, the essays in this volume demonstrate how some of the most productive and significant methodologies for studying ancient Greece can be employed to illuminate a range of different kinds of subject matter. These essays, which bring together the work of some of …
Aristotle and Slavery in Athens
The New York Daily Tribune for 20 December 1859 reported a pro-slavery meeting held the day before under the banner of ‘Justice for the South’ (the Civil War was less than eighteen months away). A lawyer named O'Connor spoke as follows: Now, Gentlemen, to that condition of bondage the Negro is assigned by Nature.... He has strength, and he has the power to labour; but the Nature which created that power has denied him either the intellect to gove…
The Trial of Socrates Revisited
Different sorts of people have been revisiting the trial of Socrates for almost 2,500 years: philosophers, political theorists, politicians, jurists, historians, journalists and artists. Each has his or her own agenda for reconstructing the motives of the prosecution, the thinking of the jurors, and the apparently perverse behaviour of Socrates himself. This paper examines some of the more influential approaches to Socrates (including those of hi…

Lending and Borrowing in Ancient Athens
Lending and borrowing were commonplace in Athens during the fourth century BC and could involve interest rates, security and banks, but the part played by credit was very different from its familiar role in capitalist society. Using a combination of sources, but concentrating on the law-court speeches of the Attic orators, Dr Millett shows that it is possible to see how lending and borrowing were a way of ordering social relations between Athenia…
Hesiod and his world
Recent interest in Hesiod has tended to concentrate on three broad aspects of his poems: their language, structure and myth. By contrast, their value as historical documents has been persistently underrated. This is a striking omission, as by general consent we have in the Works & Days a written source, giving detailed information about life in the early archaic period, for which virtually no other documentary evidence exists. Yet by comparison w…
