Solon's Law of Stasis and ATIMIA in Archaic Athens. [From: Transactions of the A
From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Author's name underlined on first page, a bit dog-eared, otherwise good and clean. - From the text: At the end of the last century Swoboda gave new subtlety to the concept of atimia. The German scholar distinguished an archaic from a classical form of the legal penalty, and the main elements of his interpretation still underlie modern assumptions. Thus it has become orthodoxy that the atimos of archaic Athens was in some sense an outlaw (liable to slaying and plunder of property with impunity); by contrast, atimia in the fifth and fourth centuries was milder, a loss of certain civic privileges (participation in courts, assembly, magistracies, etc.).
