The Athenian Nation

By: Edward Cohen

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Athenian Nation

By: Edward Cohen

Challenging the modern assumption that ancient Athens is best understood as a polis, Edward Cohen boldly recasts our understanding of Athenian political and social life. Cohen demonstrates that ancient sources referred to Athens not only as a polis, but also as a "nation" (ethnos), and that Athens did encompass the characteristics now used to identify a "nation." He argues that in Athens economic, religious, sexual, and social dimensions were no less significant than political and juridical considerations, and accordingly rejects prevailing scholarship's equation of Athens with its male citizen body. In fact, Cohen shows that the categories of "citizen" and "noncitizen" were much more fluid than is often assumed, and that some noncitizens exercised considerable power. He explores such subjects as the economic importance of businesswomen and wealthy slaves; the authority exercised by enslaved public functionaries; the practical egalitarianism of erotic relations and the broad and meaningful protections against sexual abuse of both free persons and slaves, and especially of children; the wide involvement of all sectors of the population in significant religious and local activities. All this emerges from the use of fresh legal, economic, and archaeological evidence and analysis that reveal the social complexity of Athens, and the demographic and geographic factors giving rise to personal anonymity and limiting personal contacts--leading to the creation of an "imagined community" with a mutually conceptualized identity, a unified economy, and national "myths" set in historical fabrication.

Konzerte, Kl Orch, op. 15

By: Edward MacDowell

One of the first American pianists and composers to achieve any degree of international fame, Edward MacDowell was already a brilliant pianist at the age of 16. After a brief period in Paris, he studied composition in 1882 with Joachim Raff in Frankfurt, Germany. While there, MacDowell was also encouraged by Franz Liszt, to whom he dedicated his Piano Concerto No. 1 in A Minor. In 1886 MacDowell completed his second piano concerto. One of the most accomplished and often-performed American works of its time, the Concerto D Minor premiered in New York in early 1889 with the composer himself performing. MacDowell continued to play the concerto both in the United States and abroad most notably in Paris at a concert devoted to American music. Glittering keyboard displays, surging emotional appeal, and a grand heroic manner characterize these two popular works of the late nineteenth century, created by the preeminent American composer of the era, acclaimed by critic and composer Virgil Thomas as "our nearest to a great master before Charles Ives.
