As another scholar noted: This is where Aristotle’s upper-class perspective entered. In his conception of self such a leader—that is, a being ‘highly renowned and prosperous,’ and possess of clout—was the only sort of person with a potential for being meaningfully pure. ’ And by moral purpose he insistently did not mean private purpose like the saving of a solitary soul; he meant purpose that influenced, carried over into, the lives of others. Plutarch followed this Aristotelian gospel steadily in his Lives.

A city-state community is a closed system where belonging meant being born into that community, Otherwise one is always an outsider. The stage was something of a metaphor for the fixed space of community. And the theatrically visual artistic sense of space also reflected the community’s best understanding of that space.
If we could but find this food and drink, these remarkable ingredients, we too could be, in theory, immortal. It is also true that this could be considered as possibly the first hints of the coming world of chemistry which of course seeks even to this day the resolution of pain and defeat of death by the magic elixir of some drug, some fountain of youth. The beginnings of the excellence of Greek thought therefore does not reside in emulating gods but rather rests within the Homeric story of one hero— Achilles.
