Subjects Political science -- Greece -- History.   Political science -- Rome -- History. ISBN:  0691166471 (hbk.) 9780691166476 (hbk.) : Description:  381 pages : maps ; 22 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "In The Birth of Politics, Melissa Lane introduces the reader to the foundations of Western political thought, from the Greeks, who invented democracy, to the Romans, who created a republic and then transformed it into an empire. Tracing the origins of our political concepts from Socrates to Plutarch to Cicero, Lane reminds us that the birth of politics was a story as much of individuals as ideas. Scouring the speeches of lawyers alongside the speculations of philosophers, and the reflections of ex-slaves next to the popular comedies and tragedies of the Greek and Roman stages, this book brings ancient ideas to life in unexpected ways."--Amazon.com.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 320.0938 La Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 320.0938 La Checked In Add Copy to MyList
