9780140440393-2025Penguin Classics 1954. Paperback. New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Thucydides</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Penguin Classics</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Paperback</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9780140440393</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 1954</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 656</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> Written four hundred years before the birth of Christ this detailed contemporary account of the struggle between Athens and Sparta stands an excellent chance of fulfilling the author's ambitious claim that the work "was done to last forever." The conflicts between the two empires over shipping trade and colonial expansion came to a head in 431 b.c. in Northern Greece and the entire Greek world was plunged into 27 years of war. Thucydides applied a passion for accuracy and a contempt for myth and romance in compiling this exhaustively factual record of the disastrous conflict that eventually ended the Athenian empire.For more than seventy years Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1700 titles Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.</p> Penguin Classics paperback

H.J. Rose A handbook of Greek literature London 1965 p. 302 The translation was made by the Dutch schoolman Hendrik Frieseman born ca. 1755. Later in life he succeeded in obtaining the rectorship of the 'Schola Latina' of Harderwijk where he died in 1821. Van der Aa 16252 In his short preface Frieseman tells us that he used for his translation the text of Duker. This must be the very learned edition with text and exhaustive commentary produced by Carolus Andreas Duker Amsterdam 1731. Frieseman tried he says to imitate the compact and succinct style of the Greek historian and tried to avoid the loose and 'agreable' style of the translation of the Frenchmen Ablancourt first published in 1662. He reproaches the famous Ablancourt that he occasionaly seems to contradict and improve Thucydides which is not the task of the translator Provenance: stamp on title: 'Bibliotheek Aloysius-college s'-Gravenhage' and of 'Bibl.-Gymn.
