Athens and Macedon

Little of the historiography of third-century Athens survives, and much of what we know—or might know—about the period has come down to us in inscriptions carved by Attic stonemasons of the time. In this book Stephen Tracy, the world's preeminent expert in this area, provides new insight into an unsettled and obscure moment in antiquity.

Stephen V. Tracy is Professor of Greek and Latin at Ohio State University and Professor of Classical Studies and Director of the American School of Classical Studies in Athens. He is the author of many books, including, most recently, Athenian Democracy in Transition: Attic Letter-Cutters of 340 to 290 b.c. (1995).
