Ancient Athens was unique in its politics, extraordinary in its religion and fanatic about its poetry. This book describes the parallel lives of Athenian democracy and Athenian tragedy - how and why they concurrently arose, blossomed and died, shaped especially by a fatal Athenian penchant for war.
