Note 1539 — Chapter VIII · COMMERCE OF DORIC STATES.
Reading edition
Plat. Alcib. i. t. v. p. 342, seq. This inferior production, with its admiration of courts and eunuchs, cannot be Plato’s, but contains, nevertheless, several curious facts. On the subject of Spartan wealth, however, it perfectly agrees with Plato’s own opinion in the Hippias, t. v. p. 414. Cf. Bitaubè, Sur la Richesse de Sparte. Nouveaux Mémoires de l’Académie Royale des Sciences et des Belles Lettres, de Berlin, xxxvii. 559.
