The Athenian Constitution is a historical and political treatise written by Aristotle, one of the most influential philosophers in Western thought. The book is a detailed analysis of the political system of Athens in the 4th century BCE, focusing on the various institutions and practices that made up the Athenian democracy.Aristotle begins by examining the origins of the Athenian constitution, tracing its development from the earliest days of the city-state to the time of his writing. He then goes on to describe the various elements of the Athenian government, including the assembly, the council, and the courts. He also discusses the role of the magistrates, the military, and the various public officials who helped to administer the city.Throughout the book, Aristotle provides a critical analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the Athenian system, highlighting both its successes and its failures. He also compares and contrasts the Athenian system with other forms of government, drawing on examples from other Greek city-states and from other cultures around the world.Overall, The Athenian Constitution is a fascinating and insightful work that provides a detailed and nuanced understanding of one of the most important political systems in world history. It remains an essential read for anyone interested in the history of democracy and the development of political thought in the Western world.[They were tried] by a court empanelled from among the noble families, and sworn upon the sacrifices. The part of accuser was taken by Myron. They were found guilty of the sacrilege, and their bodies were cast out of their graves and their race banished for evermore. In view of this expiation, Epimenides the Cretan performed a purification of the city.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
