Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : Counsellors, council members, and ambassadors are often complementary figures, but from Homeric Greece to Classical Sparta we know of certain characters like the hero Odysseus or the Spartiate Lichas who personally performed all of these tasks ( i.e. deliberating, deciding, and delivering the decision). Based on the analysis of the relevant literary sources, this paper proposes to address the following questions: what does the triple function of these figures imply for their respective duties? Can these cases be considered to be representative for Homeric Greece and Classical Sparta?
