Aristocracy and Athletics in Archaic and Classical Greece
Nicholson, Nigel (Reed College, Oregon)
Athletics represented an important institution through which the Greek aristocracies sought to maintain their privileged political position. In this book, Nigel Nicholson examines how aristocrats responded as the relationship between the victors and the helpers changed radically, which threatened the political value of athletics, through a study of victory memorials.
