Conclusion
The conclusion emphasizes the diversity both of the criteria for citizenship attested in the preceding chapters and of the conceptions which they imply of the archaic polis and its organization, in terms of centralized authority and inclusiveness. Although it is therefore unlikely that classical citizenship simply evolved from archaic citizenship, the persistence of characteristic early features such as performative aspects and the major role of …
Defining Citizenship in Archaic Greece
Citizenship is a major feature of contemporary national and international politics. It is also a legacy of ancient Greece. The concept of membership of a community appeared in Greece some three millennia ago as a participation in the social and political life of small-scale communities, but only towards the end of the fourth century BC did Aristotle offer the first explicit statement about it. Though long accepted, the Aristotelian definition rem…
Law and Citizenship in the Greek Poleis
The chapter provides a survey of the meaning and workings of citizenship in the Greek poleis in the Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic time. It discusses citizenship as political participation and as performance, and gives a comprehensive account of the rights and duties of citizenship, isolating an understanding of citizenship shared across the Greek world. It also discusses categories such as resident foreigners and women, and their status wit…
Hetaireia
The hetaireia (band of hetairoi, i.e., comrades) is attested in Crete and Cyrene as a social subdivision akin to the Spartan syssition , but the term is more usually applied to informal groupings of upper‐class males who engage jointly in warfare and politics and meet socially in the symposion .

Authorial Voice and Narrative Management in Herodotus
Herodotus exhibits a distinctive authorial persona: stylistic features such as prospective sentences, anticipatory constructions, and ring-composition advance the narrative and mark its progress, while signposting and transitional markers lead the audience through it. He alludes to the progress of the narrative, provides cross-references, and asides which serve as explanatory footnotes; engages with the audience in rhetorical questions and second…
Introduction
This introductory chapter begins with a brief background of the organization of the Leeds–Manchester Greek History Research Seminar, which sought ‘to give the variety and plurality their due by examining alternatives (theoretical and actual) to the polis and/or to democracy in archaic, classical, and early hellenistic Greece’. In short, the goal was to provide a counterbalance to the then current democracy celebrations, to redirect attention to t…
Alternatives to Athens
In 1993 the world celebrated the 2500th anniversary of the birth of democracy in ancient Athens, whose polis — or citizen state — is often viewed as the model ancient Greek state. In an age when democracy has apparently triumphed following the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe, it tends to be forgetten that the democratic citizen state was only one of many forms of political community in Greek antiquity. This volume aims to redress the bala…
Thucydides and the Athenian Purification of Delos
Two passages in pseudo-Xenophon
This sentence has long been regarded as problematic; Kirchhoff's emendation is palaeographically simple and has met with general approval, but if ίερά is taken to mean ‘temples’, as is usual, the phrase is not without its difficulties. ỉστασθαι is normally used of inscriptions, statues and trophies rather than buildings; LSJ cite only one instance of the latter usage, Thucydides 1.69.1, and there it might be argued that the Long Walls were not a …
The labour of women in classical Athens
Demosthenes' client Euxitheos is attempting to defend his claim to citizenship, and finds himself obliged to counteract the prejudice raised by his opponent Euboulides from the fact that his mother works, and has worked, in menial wage labour. The implication is that no citizen woman would sink so low; therefore, she is no citizen, and so neither is he. His response is defensive: he acknowledges that such labour is a source of prejudice (42), but…
