Product Information

Investigates the construction of democratic ideology in Classical Athens through a study of the social memory of Athens' mythical past Proposes a novel approach to Athenian democratic ideology that opens new frontiers of investigation in ancient history and the social sciences The introduction clearly sets out the aims and methodology of the book and its place within the scholarship in ancient history and the social sciences Four case studies illuminate the impact of Athenian democratic institutions on ideology, myth, and the use of social memory Offers a long-awaited new interpretation of the Athenian funeral oration for the war dead Offers clear overviews of Athenian democratic institutions (e.g., Assembly, Council, lawcourts) based on the most recent scholarship Provides up-to-date overviews of several values in Greek thought (e.g., charis , hybris , eugeneia ) The debate on Athenian democratic ideology has long been polarised around two extremes. A Marxist tradition views ideology as a cover-up for Athens' internal divisions. Another tradition, sometimes referred to as culturalist, interprets it neutrally as the fixed set of ideas shared by the members of the Athenian community. Matteo Barbato addresses this dichotomy by providing a unitary approach to Athenian democratic ideology. Analysing four different myths from the perspective of the New Institutionalism, he demonstrates that Athenian democratic ideology was a fluid set of ideas, values and beliefs shared by the Athenians as a result of a constant ideological practice influenced by the institutions of the democracy. He shows that this process entailed the active participation of both the mass and the elite and enabled the Athenians to produce multiple and compatible ideas about their community and its mythical past.

Reviews
Matteo Barbato combines an analysis of political institutions with a diligent reading of funeral speeches and tragedies. He skilfully demonstrates the importance of myths in classical Athens and offers a fresh perspective on values and role models in the Athenian democracy.
