Politics & Poetics
New York, Heritage Press, 1964. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Size: Large 8vo 9" - 10. Sturdy, attractive, tightly bound in hardcover format, generally clean, unmarked interior, minimal rubbing to extremities. A justly dubbed classic in Ancient Greece history and culture, politics and poetics, a fine exemplar of Heritage Press production standards and with Sandglass pamphlet laid in. Aristotle's classic work is edited by Benjamin Jowett and S.H. Butcher and with an Horace M. Kallen. Leonard Baskin's fine black-and-white engravings grace the frontis and throughout the text. Twenty-three centuries after its compilation, the Politics, as it's known, still asks central questions. His analysis is based upon 150 different city constitutions and a wide range of political issues to try to establish what's best for men (not women and slaves) and city function. Aristotle believed that city constitutions should be ideal in and of themselves but also serve men's just needs, the ones accorded by man, "a political animal."
