Pericles comes of age in an Athens transformed by victory over Persia but divided over how its new power should be used. Living in the shadow of his father Xanthippus, he competes with Cimon for military distinction and political influence as the Delian League carries the war into the Aegean. Campaigning, personal rivalry and democratic debate shape the emergence of the leader who will come to define Athens’s golden age.
