Note 132:1 — Chapter VII

Reading edition

He says indeed in one place (Panegyr. p. 51) that Hellenedom is rather a matter of common culture, than of common race. But nowhere does he ever acknowledge that foreign races as such can attain this culture, and he shows the respect of every old-fashioned Hellene for the Spartans, who belonged to the race, but were devoid of this culture.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
