Readings in Classical Political Thought (Hackett Publishing Co.)

From Homer to Machiavelli, this new anthology features all of the major ancient and medieval political theory. In the spirit of those traditions of classical and medieval thought it elucidates, Readings in Classical Political Thought represents not only those thinkers traditionally recognised as philosophers, but poets, legislators, sophists, dramatists, historians, statesmen and theologians as well. Pre-eminent translations and the editor's own thoughtful Introductions further distinguish this unique anthology.
