Agamemnon et les rois dans le Panathénaïque
Abstrak
Abstract : In a speech that Isocrates presents as a last praise of Athens, the place of royalty seems at first sight secondary. However, a close analysis of the speech shows that the political reflection is based on a network of references to kingship that can be seen in the prologue, in the constitutional discussion and in the contrasting figures of the Great King, Agamemnon, Theseus and the Spartan kings. By highlighting some of these figures (Agamemnon and Theseus in particular), refraining from criticizing the Spartan kings, Isocrates tries to promote a specific model of democracy and a political project in line with his panhellenic ideals, despite his lost illusions and his old age.
