POLI 1001 : Poli Sci 1001 Exam 1
Document Summary
Remember that this question asks about political consciousness in the classical world, which means that the search is for right order. To say that the search is self-conscious is also to say that it is deliberate. A consciousness of self leads us to a concern for the rights of the individual. Remember, this question is asking about the modern nation, not the modern state. Territory and sovereignty are characteristics of a modern state, not necessarily of a modern nation. Aeschylus is a strong believer in divine justice; in the end, athena succeeds in establishing just that. Thus, alternative #1 is not accurate: what is hubris, i am the sole surviving son of the blood feast of the house of atreus; i have become clytaemnestra"s lover and a tyrant. Who am: insight, pride, greed, vengeance, power. I: orestes, menelaus, agamemnon, aegisthus, pylades, afor we are strong and skilled; we have authority; we hold memory of evil.
