Alkibiades (c. 450 BCE – c. 404 BCE) was an Athenian statesman, orator, and general.
A friend of Sokrates and a relative of Perikles, he made the acquaintance of the Spartan misthios Kassandra in 431 BCE.
Biography
In 431 BCE, Alkibiades was present in a gathering hosted by Perikles. As he arrived, he prepared to indulge freely. Kassandra needed information from him, and in turn he asked her to bring them oil for their activities and asked her to join in.[1]
Personality and traits
As a young man, Alkibiades harboured not only a somewhat flamboyant attitude but also a rather insatiable libido, frequently engaging in threesomes and even foursomes with men and women together. He was not against morally questionable, if not illegal, means for his own personal gain, and he had Kassandra perform many such illicit tasks for him as well. He got rid of Diodoros whom he owed money, attempted to poison a rival politician, and instructed Kassandra to steal an olisbos from a woman whose husband controlled trade routes—all without any qualms. Nonetheless, he did help a woman escape from her supposedly abusive husband "out of the goodness of [his] own heart".[2]
Trivia
- Alkibiades claimed descent from the mythical hero, Ajax.
