Constitution of Athens

The Constitution of Athens, attributed to Aristotle or his student, is a historical text that outlines the political structure of ancient Athens. Written in the 4th century BCE, it discusses significant topics such as Solon's legislative reforms that abolished debt slavery and the evolution of democracy and tyranny in the city-state. The manuscript was lost for centuries until its rediscovery in the late 19th century in Egypt, making it a crucial source for understanding Athenian governance and political philosophy.
