Book Description:
|
The crisis of Spartan power in the first half of the fourth century has been connected to Spartan inability to manage the hegemony built on the ruins of the Athenian Empire. This book offers a new perspective, suggesting that the crisis that finally leveled Sparta was in vital ways a result of centrifugal impulses within the Peloponnesian League.
