P. 90 f. “The ancients were attached to their country
by three things—their temples, their tombs, and their
forefathers. The two great bonds which united them to
their government were the bonds of habit and antiquity.
With the moderns, hope and the love of novelty have
produced a total change. The ancients said _our
forefathers_, we say posterity; we do not, like them,
love our _patria_, that is to say, the country and the
laws of our fathers, rather we love the laws and the
country of our children; the charm we are most sensible
to is the charm of the future, and not the charm of the
past.” Joubert, transl. by M. Arnold.

Both agree that a high spirit may be produced by suitable
_nomoi_ and that man’s spirits are “enslaved” under
autocracy. This is a more liberal doctrine than that
discussed in Aristotle, that Barbarians are slaves “by
nature.”
P. 100. _Supplices_ 403 f. _Medea_ 536 f.
The association of Liberty and Law is exhibited both
positively and negatively (as in the breach of both
by the tyrant) in the tragic poets, etc. Thus the
_Suppliants_ of Aeschylus is concerned with a point of
marriage-law, the _Antigone_ of Sophocles with a point of
burial-law, and so on.

this danger by the _indigitamenta_.

Democritus (139) says, “Law aims at the amelioration
of human life and is capable of this, when men are
themselves disposed to accept it; for law reveals
to every man who obeys it his special capacity for
excellence.”
