520 2  "This volume presents for the first time an in-depth 
       analysis of the origins of Greek euergetism. 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
