Description:
This concise volume deftly examines the impact of Classical political thinking on subsequent generations of politicians and theorists down to our own day. Vlassopoulos produces a nuanced and on occasion surprising argument, showing that reception is rarely straightforward, and that the lessons and theory drawn from aspects of the Classical tradition are seldom consistent, just as the idea a Classical tradition is itself a modern imposition on an originally diverse body of thought.
