Requirements: .ePUB, .PDF reader, 1.2 Mb
Overview: Father-son conflict was for the Athenians a topic of widespread interest that touched the core of both family and political life, particularly during times of social upheaval. Barry Strauss explores the tensions experienced by a society that cherished both youthful independence and paternal authority. He examines father-son relationships within the Athenian family and the way these relations were presented in a wide variety of political and literary texts. In emphasizing the blurring of boundaries between family and state, or private and public, in Athens, Strauss encourages us to reflect anew on the distinction between these concepts and on the difficulties of putting that distinction into practice today.
