Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket. 0520078209. Very light shelfwear to book and DJ else Fine.; Examines Thucydides' comments on finance in the context of the larger work and carefully scrutinizes other, chiefly epigraphic, evidence as well. Thucydides has been found guilty of indifference toward financial matters without a consideration of all the evidence. Now Lisa Kallet-Marx examines Thucydides' treatment of financial resources by studying his comments on finance in the context of the whole work and scrutinizes other, chiefly epigraphic, evidence as well. Her comprehensive inspection of the Archaeology, Pentekontaetia, and history of the Archidamian War demonstrates that the role of financial resources is central to Thucydides' ideas about naval power and figures prominently in his speeches and narrative.; 229 pages.
