One of the fundamental works of Western political thought,
Aristotle's masterwork is the first systematic treatise on the
science of politics. For almost three decades, Carnes Lord's justly
acclaimed translation has served as the standard English edition.
Widely regarded as the most faithful to both the original Greek and
Aristotle's distinctive style, it is also written in clear,
contemporary English. This new edition of the Politics retains and
adds to Lord's already extensive notes, clarifying the flow of
Aristotle's argument and identifying literary and historical
references. A glossary defines key terms in Aristotle's
philosophical-political vocabulary. Lord has made revisions to
problematic passages throughout the translation in order to enhance
both its accuracy and its readability. He has also substantially
revised his introduction for the new edition, presenting an account
of Aristotle's life in relation to political events of his time;
the character and history of his writings and of the Politics in
particular; his overall conception of political science; and his
impact on subsequent political thought from antiquity to the
present. Further enhancing this new edition is an up-to-date
selected bibliography.
