That view has recently come under challenge. This is the first book devoted to this lively controversy. Historians from Britain, Europe and the USA present different sides of the argument, with a variety of comparative approaches. Topics include kingship and hegemonic structures, education and common meals, religion, helotage and ethnography. The volume concludes with a wide-ranging debate on the overall question of whether Sparta was a normal or exceptional polis.
