25690New York. 1996. Free Press. 2nd Printing. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0684828154. Introduction by Victor Davis Hanson. Edited by Robert B. Strassler. 711 pages. hardcover. Inscribed by Robert Strassler. keywords: History Greece Ancient War. DESCRIPTION - Thucydides called his account of two decades of war between Athens and Sparta 'a possession for all time' and indeed it is the first and still the most famous work in the Western historical tradition. Considered essential reading for generals statesmen and liberally educated citizens for more than 2000 years The Peloponnesian War is a mine of military moral political and philosophical wisdom. However this classic book has long presented obstacles to the uninitiated reader. Written centuries before the rise of modern historiography Thucydides' narrative is not continuous or linear. His authoritative chronicle of what he considered the greatest war of all time is rigorous and meticulous yet omits the many aids to comprehension modern readers take for granted - such as brief biographies of the story's main characters maps and other visual enhancements and background on the military cultural and political traditions of ancient Greece. Robert Strassler's new edition amends these omissions and not only provides a new coherence to the narrative overall but effectively reconstructs the lost cultural context that Thucydides shared with his original audience. Based on the venerable Richard Crawley translation updated and revised for modern readers The Landmark Thucydides includes a vast array of superbly designed and presented maps brief informative appendices by outstanding classical scholars on subjects of special relevance to the text explanatory marginal notes on each page an index of unprecedented subtlety and depth and numerous other useful features. Readers will find that with this edition they can dip into the text at any point and be immediately oriented with regard to the geography season date and stage of the conflict. In any list of the Great Books of Western Civilization The Peloponnesian War stands near the top. This handsome elegant and authoritative new edition will ensure that its greatness is appreciated by future generations. inventory #25690 hardcover
1550111546London: William Tylle 1550. First edition of one one of the greatest of classic historical works. Folio bound in 19th century full vellum morocco spine label marbled endpapers title-page with elaboarate historiated woodcut border. In very good condition with light toning to the text. Rare and desirable in this condition. “The standards and methods of Thucydides as a contemporary historian have never been bettered. He began work at the very start of the events he records and the penetration and concentration which he devoted to his account of the ‘Peloponnesian War’ the war between Athens and Sparta from 431 to 404 B.C. were based on the conviction that it would prove the most important event in Greek history… He saw his history as a source of profit to ‘those who desire an exact knowledge of the past as a key to the future which in all probability will resemble the past.’ It was in this sense… that he called it… ‘a possession forever.’ This is exactly what it has become†PMM 102.
