Not illustrated. 1878 edition. Excerpt: ... old and true saying, that in order to govern, men must learn to obey; but I do not think that the converse will hold good, and that whoever can obey is therefore fit to govern. 12. Criticism Of Grote's Estimate Of The Athenian Democracy. Again, as regards the comparison of the Athenian Demos and its acts with the conduct of the oligarchs, there cannot of course be a moment's doubt which side committed most, and most heinous, crimes; but it must be repeated that such a constitution as Phormisius proposed is really anything but oligarchical; that it is, in fact, quite sufficiently democratic. Only a madman could wish to defend the actions of which the oligarchy was guilty in this period of re-action against the democracy; but we are not to forget in this question that the dangerous character of this oligarchy had its root in nothing else than the extreme exasperation with which the wealthy and cultivated minority saw itself subjected to the domination of the masses, which necessarily consisted in great part of rough and uncultivated persons, and which were guided by demagogues destitute of merit and worth. That such a sovereignty of the masses must have been oppressive in the highest degree to all who did not belong to them, is clear; and the remarks made on this point in the tract on the Athenian commonwealth among Xenophon's writings, may be set down as one-sided, but hardly as unfounded. The hostility to the democracy can be thus explained, although the actions to which it led were morally most reprehensible, and even politically were mistakes. That, on the other hand, the populace of Athens compared with the oligarchs is seen to be infinitely better, any one will gladly admit. Every one will say, with the most assured...

Excerpt from Athenian Constitutional History: As Represented in Grote's History of Greece In his History of Greece, Mr. Grote has produced a work, the study of which, cannot be too urgently recommended to all who are concerned to acquaint themselves with Greek Antiquity. It presents a combination of merits which few historical works of any kind present in the same degree; and certainly none of the works which have hitherto treated of Greek History. It displays the most accurate acquaintance, based on the profoundest and most comprehensive studies, with the whole of Greek antiquity, as far as its productions have come down to us; the most careful consideration of modern researches, in all cases where consideration is due; penetrating criticism in the employment both of the authorities, and of the results which moderns have obtained from them; and finally, a clear, intelligible, and interesting narrative style, by which the reader's intellect, and where the subject allows of such treatment, his sympathies and feelings as well, are roused and delighted. His familiar intercourse with the works of the Hellenic past, has imbued the author with the mind and spirit of that past: he can live, as it were, with the ancient Hellenes; and he thinks and feels as a contemporary of the men whose acts and destiny he narrates. Yet, though he so perfectly adopts the stand-point of the times of which he writes, so thoroughly enters into the modes of thought and feeling of the men whom he sets before us, and though he is so ready to follow them in all their connections, relations, and tendencies, still he always maintains the attitude of the impartial observer who is on a higher level than his subject; the liveliest sympathy with the actors does not impair the independence and impartiality of his judgment.

Grote's History of Greece is one of the classic works of historical interpretation and scholarship. George Grote - banker, MP and a founder of London University - was the first historian to give a high value to the Greek creation of democracy, and this aspect of his work is closely relevant to current debates about democracy in our times. This abridgement of the original twelve volume work, which was made in the early years of the century and published by George Routledge and sons, is now available again and makes accessible the essential Grote. In a new and original introduction, based on the latest research into Grote and into Greek history, Paul Cartledge places Grote's history in its intellectual context, discusses its salient features and traces its subsequent reception over the past century and a half.
