Summary:	"Flamininus' proclamation, made on behalf of himself and the Roman senate, is a classic example of the uses of history in the service of politics. In declaring the end of Macedonian tyranny, it echoed the great debates that we know from fourth-century Athens, as Demosthenes warned of the dangers to freedom presented by the rise of the first great Macedonian king, Philip I. Those events were not so very far distant (150 years is not much in the longue durée of history), but in the meantime the reign of Philip's son Alexander had changed beyond recognition the shape of east Mediterranean politics. Whether or not they realized or wanted it, the Romans were themselves the heirs of Macedon"--
