| description | Notwithstanding the preponderant part played in the western political thinking by the Greeks, a fundamental element of the imaginary in politics (the metaphor of the political body composed of all the citizens gathered) does not proceed from the Greek classical theory about politics. For that metaphor, which maybe originates from very ancient traditions of the Near-East and is strongly anti-democratic and anti-egalitarian, testimonies are to be found, after the classical period of Greece, by Greek and Roman historians or historiographs recounting the first secession of the Roman plebs and also in Christian thought about the ecclesial community seen as a body whose head is Christ. |
