During the inspired years of the Athenian empire, through the
tragedy of its collapse, to the more prosaic era that followed,
most of the great names in Athenian history were involved in the
procedures of criminal law. Political Trials in Ancient Greece,
first published in 1990, explores the relationships between
historical process, constitution, law, political machinations and
foreign policy, concentrating on fifth and fourth century Athens
and on Macedonia. These trials contribute significant details to
our knowledge of such towering figures as Aeschylus, Pericles,
Thucydides, Alcibiades, Socrates, Demosthenes and Aristotle, as
well as a diverse collection of Macedonian defendants. The
jurisdiction of the Areopagus, trials of communities, and the
personal jurisdiction of the Macedonian king are also examined.
Richard Bauman's original account broadens our understanding of
Greek legal institutions and of the ancient Greek approach to the
law, as well as the general ethos of Athenian and Macedonian
society.
