Abstract

In 1934 Paola Zancan, an esteemed scholar of the University of Padua, published an historical essay on the birth of Hellenistic monarchies in which she underlined the many problems arising from their interpretation as unitary states led by absolute rulers and suggested that they could have been modeled on the type of a federal state. With her book, Paola Zancan participated in the famous debate on the idea of freedom in the ancient world, in which prominent scholars of the ancient world took part, such as Gaetano De Sanctis, Benedetto Croce, and Aldo Ferrabino, in whose school Zancan had been trained.
