Kinship in Thucydides - Fragoulaki, Maria (Lecturer in Ancient Greek History, Cardiff University)

This volume explores the relationship between Thucydides and ancient Greek historiography, sociology, and culture. Drawing on modern anthropological enquiries on kinship and the sociology of ethnicity and emotions, it argues that inter-communal kinship has a far more pervasive importance in Thucydides than has so far been acknowledged.
