Shifting power and sea rule in ancient Greece, shown through pivotal wars, politics, and religion.

This volume surveys the rise and clash of Greek powers from Thebes and Athens to the early Macedonian state. It explains how religious authority, diplomacy, and naval supremacy influenced who led and who resisted. Readable and tightly argued, it connects dramatic events like sacred wars, dynastic struggles, and the slow move toward a common Greek politics.

How religious institutions shaped military and political decisions in classical Greece

The interplay between Athens, Thebes, Sparta, and Macedon as power centers

Key episodes such as the Phocian War, the Delphic treasury dispute, and the growth of hegemony

Concepts of sea power and political leadership that influenced Greek foreign policy

Ideal for readers of classical history who want a clear account of how Greece evolved from city-state clashes to broader strategic aims.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores Greek history from 403 to 362 B.C.E., following the end of the Peloponnesian War that had left Sparta victorious. Against expectations, Sparta abused its power, acting as a tyrant over its allies and oppressing them. The author's astute analysis demonstrates the tremendous resilience of the Greek people during this period. The narrative is particularly rich in detail about Thebes, which gradually emerges as Sparta's rival, and about the fascinating figure of Alexander the Great's father, Philip of Macedon. The work offers not only an insightful look at an important era in Greek history but also a compelling portrayal of the nature of power and its uses and abuses across time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781440041228_0
