Mid-fifth-century Athens saw the development of the Athenian
empire, the radicalization of Athenian democracy through the
empowerment of poorer citizens, the adornment of the city through a
massive and expensive building program, the classical age of
Athenian tragedy, the assembly of intellectuals offering novel
approaches to philosophical and scientific issues, and the end of
the Spartan-Athenian alliance against Persia and the beginning of
open hostilities between the two greatest powers of ancient Greece.
The Athenian statesman Pericles both fostered and supported many of
these developments. Although it is no longer fashionable to view
Periclean Athens as a social or cultural paradigm, study of the
history, society, art, and literature of mid-fifth-century Athens
remains central to any understanding of Greek history. This
collection of essays reveal the political, religious, economic,
social, artistic, literary, intellectual, and military
infrastructure that made the Age of Pericles possible.
