A tragic anti-hero, yes, and thus the most Athenian out of anyone, but every time I go back to the sources I find him worse and worse. I read a fun paper a while back that pointed out that all of his claims to fame were almost winning something. With the exception, I suppose, of the Olympic chariot teams he sponsored, and even there he hedged his bets by entering seven teams.

Plus he has all sorts of domestic violence anecdotes and stories like "Alcibiades once went into a bookshop and asked for some Homer. The bookseller said he was all out of Homer. At this Alcibiades wittily punched him in the face."
