"'The Sea! The Sea! ' tells the story of 'Thalatta! Thalatta!', the shout first uttered on a mountains in eastern Turkey by the famous Ten Thousand, the army of Greek mercenaries whose adventures in what are now Turkey, Syria and Iraq were described by the Athenian historian and philosopher Xenophon. The shout itself has had an extraordinary afterlife, playing a persistent part in the European and American cultural tradition over the last two hundred years. Tim Rood tells its story for the first time, taking in literary masterpieces by writers such as Heine, Shelley and Joyce, books of travel and adventure set in the Middle East and elsewhere, articles in Victorian periodicals, popular romance novels, newspaper editorials at the time of the British evacuation from Dunkirk, a painting by the nineteenth-century artist Benjamin Robert Haydon, an unpublished radio play by Louis MacNeice, and a modern novel and film which transfer Xenophon's story to New York City. 262p. illus. bibliography.index Book

In 401 B.C., a thundering army of mercenaries, camp followers, dreamers, and glory seekers set off to help a rebellious foreign general named Cyrus. In the months that followed, ten thousand men - trained and hardened in three decades of war in Greece - would engage in pitched battles, witness untold horrors, and begin a desperate march across the desert, over raging rivers, and into the jaws of hell itself. By the time it was over, some would be alive, others dead, and one among them would emerge as the greatest hero of all... In a novel of high adventure and riveting historical drama, Michael Curtis Ford brings to life an amazing true story from Greek antiquity - Xenophon's march of the Ten Thousand.383p, Remainder mark else as new.

Foxing to top of textblock with some minor shelfwear. DJ has light shelfwear. ; "If you inquire into the origins of the novel long enough," writes James Tatum in the preface to this work, ". . . You will come to the fourth century before our era and Xenophon's Education of Cyrus, or the Cyropaedia." The Cyrus in question is Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian empire celebrated in the Book of Ezra as the liberator of Israel, and the Cyropaedia, written to instruct future rulers by his example, became not only an inspiration to poets and novelists but a profoundly influential political work. With Alexander as its earliest student, and Elizabeth I of England one of its later pupils, it was the founding text for the tradition of "mirrors for princes" in the West, including Machiavelli's Prince. Xenophon's masterpiece has been overlooked in recent years: Tatum's goal is to make it fully meaningful for the twentieth-century reader. ; 328 pages

Gutes Exemplar. - Latein; Griechisch. - Aus der Bibliothek von Prof Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) - Xenophon (* zwischen 430 und 425 v. Chr. in Athen; † ca. 354 v. Chr. in Korinth) war ein antiker griechischer Politiker, Feldherr und Schriftsteller in den Bereichen Geschichte, Ökonomie und Philosophie. Er war ein Schüler des Sokrates. ... (wiki) // Semper mihi indices opera scriptoris alicuius omnia complexi optabiliores visi sunt et utiliores esse quam qui ad librorum singulorum editiones pertinerent. In hoc igitur libro quaecumque Xenophontis propria viderentur esse componere conatus sum vel ad ipsorum verborum copiam vel ad usum eorum et grammaticam rationem pertinentia. Verba in octo classes redegi omissis nihil peculiare habentibus. Eetuli ad primam classem appositisque numeris sigiiificavi vocabula, quae apud Xenophontem non leguntur at ei ab antiquioribus quibusdam scriptoribus et ab interpretibus tribuuntur vel etiam in libris manuscriptis inveniuntur; ad alteram dubia et suspecta; ad tertiam semel dicta apud Xenophontem, ad quae quidem plurima accedunt in classibus quinta et sequentibus; ad quartam quae praeter singulos Xenophontis locos omnino non reperiuntur vel perraro; ad quintam ionica; ad sextam dorica, Laconica; ad septimam poetica; ad octavam denique a consuetudine optimorum scriptorum recedentia vel cum recentioribus com-munia. Quae reliqua sunt numeris non egent. Quo in ordine constituendo nonnulla inoerta sunt, ut facile concedam aliquoties me magis probabilia quam vera dedisse. Nomina propria praetermisi, praeterquam ubi in eorum scriptura difficultas quaedam aut dubitatio esset. Aliquam hunc Lexilogum cum mea Xenophontis editione eonranctionem habere consentaneum ost, id qnod maxime signo n. indicavi. … (Vorwort) ISBN 9783487041537
