Early Pythagorean Politics In Practice And Theory by Edwin Leroy Minar is a comprehensive study of the political philosophy and practices of the Pythagorean community in ancient Greece. The book explores the political ideas of Pythagoras and his followers, and how they put these ideas into practice in their daily lives. The author examines the Pythagorean concept of justice, which was based on the idea of harmony and balance in all aspects of life. He also explores the role of leadership in the Pythagorean community, and how the Pythagoreans sought to create a society based on the principles of equality and mutual respect. The book also delves into the political struggles faced by the Pythagoreans, including their conflicts with the ruling elites of ancient Greece. The author provides a detailed analysis of the political and social context in which the Pythagoreans operated, and how their ideas and practices influenced the wider political landscape of the time. Overall, Early Pythagorean Politics In Practice And Theory is a fascinating exploration of the political philosophy and practices of one of the most influential communities in ancient Greece. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of political thought, ancient Greek philosophy, or the history of ancient Greece more broadly.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
