She is professor emeritus at the University of Paris VIII. Her works have been translated into many languages including English, German, Spanish, Italian and modern Greek.

Reviews

[Sotiris Karaiskos · Rating 4 out of 5]

Εξαιρετικά διαφωτιστικό βιβλίο, ειδικά στα κεφάλαια που ασχολούνται με την πολιτική οργάνωση των πόλεων εκτός από την Αθήνα και τη Σπάρτη, πράγματα για τα οποία ομολογώ ότι είχα πλήρη άγνοια.
