Oikonomika (Treatise)

David M. Schaps

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingEntry for encyclopedia/dictionarypeer-review

Abstract

The Oikonomika attributed to Aristotle is three unrelated short works, none of them, apparently, written by him, but all probably deriving from his philosophic school. The first book is a brief treatise on household management, the second a longer discussion of governmental finance, and the third, which exists only in two medieval Latin translations, a short manual for marital happiness.
