Peter Liddel offers a fresh approach to the old problem of the
nature of individual liberty in ancient Athens. He draws
extensively on oratorical and epigraphical evidence from the late
fourth century BC to analyse the ways in which ideas about liberty
were reconciled with ideas about obligation, and examines how this
reconciliation was negotiated, performed, and presented in the
Athenian law-courts, assembly, and through the inscriptional mode
of publication. Using modern political theory as a springboard,
Liddel argues that the ancient Athenians held liberty to consist of
the substantial obligations (political, financial, and military) of
citizenship.
