Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Aristotle's Constitution of Athens: Translated for English Readers and Students
The recovery of such a book, after its loss for so many centuries, is an event in litera ture; at the same time its argument, largely concerned as it is with the development of democracy at Athens, provides matter of political and practical, rather than of academic, interest for the English reader of to-day.
