Summary: | Stásis as a political phenomenon arises in Archaic Greece as a consequence of the absence of written law, tyrannical governments and the iniquities due to the excessive accumulation of wealth by the aristocratic class.
Didactic epic, elegies and iambus describe social unrest in the different póleis. The stasis is narrated, sometimes explicitly, sometimes indirectly, in poems and fragments that transmit the state of permanent conflict during the first centuries of history of the Greek póleis. |
