Best known as the birthplace of Sappho and Theophrastus, Eresos was one of five city‐states on Lesbos in the Classical period. Located in the southwest of the island, its main settlement lay around an acropolis with some sheltered anchorage at the south end of the main coastal plain. Polygonal (“Lesbian”) enclosure walls, probably archaic, and two early Christian basilicas are among the few remains. It produced fine barley meal (Ath. 3.111f–112a), and the best wine of Lesbos (Gal. 14.28k).

Did Theophrastus Help Deliver Eresus From Tyrants?

Plutarch's Moralia mentions that Theophrastus twice delivered his native city from tyrants (1097B, 1126F), a detail that has been difficult to make coherent with our existing understanding of Theophrastus’ life. Theophrastus seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time for this to have been possible, or to have been too undemocratic and scholastic a philosopher to have wanted to participate in these struggles in the first place. By more closely examining the nature of Plutarch's comment and the evidence for Theophrastus’ political orientation and character, this article argues that there are, however, grounds on which to take Plutarch's report seriously. It presents a case for Theophrastus’ participation in two liberation struggles in 334 and 332, without complicating the trajectory of his accompanying Aristotle to both Macedonia and Athens during this period.
