Alcibiades and Athens: A Study in Literary Presentation - Oxford Classical Monographs
Gribble, David (former Senior Scholar, former Senior Scholar, Merton College, Oxford)
The text is about the tension between the classical city and the individual of superlative power, status and ambition. It looks at the way Alcibiades is approximated to archetypes of the individual "outside" the city: the tyrant, the victor, the ostracism victim, the scapegoat, the barbarian.
