First words
The title of this book has several implications. The first is purely chronological. The period between Solon and Socrates includes the sixth and fifth centuries, that is to say, the culmination and the end of the archaic age, and the finest flowering of the classical age. I do not include the fourth century, in spite of Plato and Praxiteles, because of the decline and change in politics during that period. The second point is that both men, Solon and Socrates, were Athenians.
