[1913 Webster]


Boule \Bou"le\, n. [Gr. ?.]
1. (Gr. Antiq.) A legislative council of elders or chiefs; a
senate.

Note: The boule of Homeric times was an aristocratic body of
princes and leaders, merely advisory to the king. The
Athenian boule of Solon's time was an elective senate
of 400, acting as a check on the popular ecclesia, for
which it examined and prepared bills for discussion. It
later increased to 500, chosen by lot, and extended its
functions to embrace certain matters of administration
and oversight.
[Webster 1913 Suppl.]

2. Legislature of modern Greece. See {Legislature}.
[Webster 1913 Suppl.]

etc. [Written also {boule}, {boulework}.]
[1913 Webster]
