Derived from the Greek for 'benefactor, ' 'euergetism' refers to the process whereby citizens and foreigners offered voluntary services and donations to the polis that were in turn recognised as benefactions in a formal act of reciprocation. Euergetism is key to our understanding of how city-states negotiated both the internal tensions between mass and elite, and their conflicts with external powers. This study adopts the standpoint of historical anthropology and seeks to identify patterns of behaviour and social practices deeply rooted in Greek society and in the long course of Greek history. It covers more than five hundred years and will appeal to ancient historians and scholars in other fields interested in gift exchange, benefactions, philanthropy, power relationships between mass and elite, and the interplay between public discourse and social praxis"--|cProvided by publisher 520 2 "This is a historical study that adopts the standpoint of historical anthropology. I do not mean by this that the book is partially based on the work of social and cultural anthropologists dealing with gift-exchange. Instead, I refer to the approach to history from which it is written. Specifically, I seek to identify--beyond individual cases and exceptions--patterns of behavior and social practices deeply rooted in Greek society and the long course of Greek history. I look for regularities, continuities and rules underlying a wide range of human actions. My goal is not to isolate ahistorical features but to analyze the role these more or less stable elements play in the historical process and how their articulation with more dynamic constituents triggered social change. Simplification is inevitable in such an approach, but my belief is that in historical inquiry a certain degree of generalization is both possible and desirable. On the other hand, the basis of the book is strongly empirical. At this level, I have tried to avoid simplification; the reader will find substantial footnotes with many references to literary and epigraphic sources and detailed discussion of documents"--Provided by publisher 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 To 146 B.C|2fast 648 7 To 1500|2fast 650 0 Benefactors|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85013127|zGreece|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n80046090-781|xHistory|yTo 1500.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006121 650 0 Voluntarism|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85144334|zGreece|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n80046090-781|xHistory|yTo 1500.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006121 650 0 Gifts|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85054894 |zGreece|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80046090- 781|xHistory|yTo 1500.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2002006121 650 0 City and town life|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85026255|zGreece|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n80046090-781|xHistory|yTo 1500.|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006121 650 0 City-states|zGreece|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009119747|yTo 1500.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012483 650 0 Interpersonal relations|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85067484|zGreece|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n80046090-781|xHistory|yTo 1500.|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006121 650 0 Power (Social sciences)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85105976|zGreece|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n80046090-781|xHistory|yTo 1500.|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006121 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Benefactors.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/830324 650 7 Voluntarism.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1168976 650 7 Gifts.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/942628 650 7 City and town life.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 862081 650 7 City-states.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/862315 650 7 Interpersonal relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/977397 650 7 Power (Social sciences)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1074219 650 7 Manners and customs.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1007815 650 7 HISTORY|xAncient|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 Social conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919811 650 7 PSYCHOLOGY|xSocial Psychology.|2bisacsh 650 7 Euergetismus.|2gnd 650 7 Macht.|2gnd 650 7 Polis.|2gnd 650 7 Stadtleben.|2gnd 650 7 Zwischenmenschliche Beziehung.|2gnd 651 0 Greece|xHistory|yTo 146 B.C.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85057074 651 0 Greece|xSocial life and customs.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85057131 651 0 Greece|xSocial conditions|yTo 146 B.C.|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh85057129 651 7 Greece.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1208380 651 7 Griechenland|gAltertum.|2gnd 651 7 Grèce antique.|2rero 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aDomingo Gygax, Marc.|tBenefaction and rewards in the ancient Greek city.|dCambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, New York : Cambridge University Press, 2016|z9780521515351|w(DLC) 2016006999|w(OCoLC)946031735 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1244620|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
