A translation of pseudo-Xenophon's Constitution of the Athenians. This lively first-hand sketch of the politics and ideology of 'Periclean' Athens represents the viewpoint of a biased and cynical aristocrat, who argues that there is method in the apparent madness of the democratic system, which is to protect it from aristocratic dominance. A valuable, and entertaining, aid to teaching and study of fifth-century Athens.

Excerpt from The Old Oligarch: Being the Constitution of the Athenians It is clear from the very first that we have to deal with one who is no democrat (c. I, and the admission of adherence to the anti-democratic cause is repeatedly rein forced by the nature of his references to his political oppo nents and friends (e. G., c. I, Hence the name of The Old Oligarch, ' with which title our ignorance of the identity of the author has to be content. That the Old Oligarch was an Athenian citizen seems to be probable from the use of we' in c. I, 12, and though certainty is precluded on this point by the curious confusion of persons in c. I, 11, the full acquaintance of the writer with the Athe nian constitution may support the conclusion. C. II, 7-8 and 11-12 have been taken as proof that the Old Oligarch was a merchant, and while once again it is doubtful if much stress can be laid upon 'my' (c. II, II), which may be merely rhetorical, the inference may gain support from the mercantile and geographical knowledge displayed in these passages, though it is difficult to point out anything in them which an ordinarily intelligent Athenian might not have thought out for himself. That he was absent from Athens when he wrote has been inferred from his frequent use of az'rreoi, there, ' and from his references to the Athenians and to the oligarchs in the third person, but here again it has been suggested that these latter uses would be ex plained if this is an oration delivered to a political club in session at Athens, under which circumstances such an orientation would not be irrational.
