Abstract
This chapter focuses on the Athenians on Samos. Samos had first embarked on oligarchy. There were attacks. Hyperbolus, the democrat whom Alcibiades had struck with ostracism, was assassinated. Androcles in Athens, Hyperbolus in Samos: Alcibiades' enemies fell, as though at random. But this disorder brought consequences. The generals, who were inclined to oppose oligarchy, were warned, as were those men known to be most opposed to the movement. These individuals in turn worked with the soldiers. On the appointed day, when the partisans of the oligarchy were going to attack on a larger scale, they ran into an organized resistance and were beaten. The two sides made peace—under the democracy. Henceforth there were two Athens: the government in Athens, oligarchic, and that in Samos, democratic. Samos, or rather the Athenians on Samos, considered themselves independent. There can be very few examples of a rupture affecting such a small city and installing two enemy factions so far apart. This rupture was conceived by Alcibiades and it would change the course of his life.
