Modern translators aim to be "a sheet of glass"; 7 their work should be transparent and the reader should see straight through it to the original text. To cite Warren Boutcher the others, began his adventures when he left Spain for "the War which Charles the Fifth made against certain Princes of Aleman" Modern commentators of Thucydides, with other modern historians and writers, take varying stances on the issue of how much of the speeches of Pericles, as given by this historian, do actually represent Pericles' own words and how much of them is free literary creation or paraphrase by Thucydides. [μ] Since Pericles never wrote down or distributed his orations, [ν] no historians are able to answer this with certainty; Thucydides recreated three of them from memory and, thereby, it cannot be ascertained that he did not add his own notions and thoughts.

After Cimon's ostracism, Pericles continued to promote a populist social policy. [23] He first proposed a decree that permitted the poor to watch theatrical plays without paying, with the state covering the cost of their admission. With other decrees he lowered the property requirement for the archonship in 458–457 BC and bestowed generous wages on all citizens who served as jurymen in the Heliaia (the supreme court of Athens) some time just after 454BC.

Ephialtes' murder in 461 BC paved the way for Pericles to consolidate his authority. [δ] Without opposition after the expulsion of Cimon, the unchallengeable leader of the democratic party became the unchallengeable ruler of Athens. He remained in power until his death in 429BC.differences as there are from the Spanish text can often be explained by examining the transmission of the text from Spanish, Samons, Loren J. (2004).
