Ten new essays from a distinguished international cast treat Sparta’s most famous area of activity. The results are challenging. Among the contributors, Thomas Figueira explores the paradox that Sparta’s cavalry was an undistinguished institution. Jean Ducat conducts the most thorough study to date of Sparta’s official cowards, the ‘tremblers’. Anton Powell asks why Sparta chose not to destroy Athens after the Peloponnesian War. And Stephen Hodkinson argues that the image of Spartan society as militaristic may after all be a?mirage. This is the sixth volume from the International Sparta Seminar, founded by Powell and Hodkinson in 1988. The series has established itself as the main forum for the study of Spartan history.
