Peasant-Citizen and Slave Author: Ellen Meiksins Wood
ISBN: 9781784781026 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 220 Published: 4 January 2016 Country of Publication: GB Dimensions (cm): 23.7 x 16.2 x 1.7 Description: Putting the peasant-citizen at the heart of ancient Athenian society.
The controversial thesis at the center of this study is that, despite the importance of slavery in Athenian society, the most distinctive characteristic of Athenian democracy was the unprecedented prominence it gave to free labor. Wood argues that the emergence of the peasant as citizen, juridically and politically independent, accounts for much that is remarkable in Athenian political institutions and culture.
