From Homer to Solon: Continuity and Change in Archaic Greece (2022), edited by Johannes C. Bernhardt and Mirko Canevaro, challenges the traditional view of the Archaic period as merely a prelude to Classical Greece. The volume emphasizes long-term social and elite continuity, explores the evolution of the polis and citizen, and re-evaluates Solon’s reforms within an "Archaic" context. A detailed review is available via the Bryn Mawr Classical Review .
