Hellenistic and Roman Sparta
A Regional History 1300-362 BC
In this new edition
Paul Cartledge and Antony Spawforth have taken account of recent finds and scholarship to revise and update their authoritative overview of later Spartan history, and of the social, political, economic and cultural changes in the Spartan community.
The significance of the account
This original and compelling account is especially significant in challenging the conventional misperception of Spartan decline after the loss of her status as a great power on the battlefield in 371 BC.
Focus and importance
The book's focus on a frequently overlooked period makes it important not only for those interested specifically in Sparta, but also for all those concerned with Hellenistic Greece, and with the life of Greece and other Greek-speaking provinces under non-Roman rule.
