The Growth of Criminal Law in Ancient Greece by George Miller Calhoun is a comprehensive study of the development of criminal law in ancient Greece. The book explores the evolution of laws and punishments from the Homeric period to the Hellenistic era. Calhoun examines the social, political, and cultural factors that influenced the creation and enforcement of criminal laws, as well as the role of the courts and the legal system in ancient Greece. The book covers a wide range of topics, including homicide, theft, assault, and sexual offenses, and provides detailed analysis of specific cases and legal codes. Through his research, Calhoun argues that criminal law in ancient Greece was not just a means of punishing offenders, but also served as a tool for maintaining social order and reinforcing cultural values.
