Fifth-century Athens has inspired generations of students and scholars. Its citizens' profound discoveries in literature, philosophy, and politics - to name but a few areas - have shaped the thinking of much of Western thought and have provided many of the joys and the tribulations that touch our daily lives. Nomodeiktes: Greek Studies in Honor of Martin Ostwald offers fascinating discussions of many of these areas, and it helps illuminate ways in which modern perceptions of this complex period are right and are wrong. Important observations are made on Greek historians and historiography, on politics and society, and on Greek philosophy and literature. The analyses of these major areas of investigation will be very useful for all interested in this centrally important period and for those who know the lure of that vivid and compelling city, Athens.
