Abstract
In the Ancient World, the politician is often described as an actor on the scene, who adapts himself to the roles required by the polis. Some examples are narrated by Plutarch, especially with reference to the Tarentine Meton and to the most famous Meton of Athens. An important example of politician/actor is Peisistratus, criticized for this reason by Solon. If the origin of this similitude is Cynic/Stoic. Plutarch revises this topos as model of téchne politiké.File in questo prodotto:
