Description
Just like today, the major events of antiquity were often secretly decided behind closed doors. This indepth study of ancient Greek diplomatic practices draws on all available sources to examine its aims, methods, institutions and instruments'. The study, which has a chronological structure begins with the growth of Spartan power before considering relations between Athens and Sparta, the rise of Thebes, Philip of Macedon and Alexander and, finally, relations between Greece and Rome.Tags
