헤라클레이다이(Herakleidai)의 퇴장 : 스파르타의 몰락과 그 원인 = A Walkout of Herakleidai : Decline of Sparta and its Cause

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Decline of Sparta was started by the defeat of battle of Leuktra (371 B.C.). But more fundamental effect on Sparta was the liberation of Messenia by Epameinondas of Thebai. The liberation and foundation of Messenia, a country suppressed by Sparta for a long time, effected greatly Spartan Socio-Economic system. And that effect made a oliganthropia - decrease of citizenship - and decrease of military power of Sparta. But, in the meantime, a handful of Spartan elite opposed stubbornly at the reformation about socio-economic system and expansion of citizenship for their own avarice. Eventually, the opposition of conservatives to preserve their property and privilege - for example, the law of Epitadeus or a coup of Leonidas and his party - was the real cause of Spartan decline. Even though Spartan Revolution was attempted by Agis Ⅳ, Kleomenes Ⅲ, Nabis, those tries were useless and desperate struggles. Eventually, Herakleidai disappeared into the veil of the world of mythos. Rome was crowned as the Queen of the (Mediterranean) world.
