About this book
Literature as well as politics is the subject of Edward Bulwer Lytton's Athens: Its Rise and Fall. In his advertisement he says he means to join a full view of Athenian letters to a fair and complete record of its political affairs, and he notes that his plan differs from that of Thirlwall's History of Greece.
The work is in five books, dedicated in March 1837 to Henry Fynes Clinton, author of the Fasti Hellenici, whose chronology Bulwer Lytton credits with lighting the way through scanty ancient authorities.
