20179781521718025-2025Independently published 2017. Paperback. New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Xenophon H. G. Dakyns</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Independently published</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Paperback</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9781521718025</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 2017</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 211</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> The text was composed around the year 370 BC and in translations Anabasis is rendered The March of the Ten Thousand or The March Up Country.Xenophon accompanied the Ten Thousand a large army of Greek mercenaries hired by Cyrus the Younger who intended to seize the throne of Persia from his brother Artaxerxes II. Though Cyrus' mixed army fought to a tactical victory at Cunaxa in Babylon 401 BC Cyrus was killed rendering the actions of the Greeks irrelevant and the expedition a failure.Stranded deep in Persia the Spartan general Clearchus and the other Greek senior officers were then killed or captured by treachery on the part of the Persian satrap Tissaphernes. Xenophon one of three remaining leaders elected by the soldiers played an instrumental role in encouraging the 10000 to march north across foodless deserts and snow-filled mountain passes towards the Black Sea and the comparative security of its Greek shoreline cities. Now abandoned in northern Mesopotamia without supplies other than what they could obtain by force or diplomacy the 10000 had to fight their way northwards through Corduene and Armenia making ad hoc decisions about their leadership tactics provender and destiny while the King's army and hostile natives barred their way and attacked their flanks.Ultimately this "marching republic" managed to reach the shores of the Black Sea at Trabzon Trebizond a destination they greeted with their famous cry of exultation on the mountain of Theches Madur in Sürmene: "Thálatta thálatta" "The sea the sea!". "The sea" meant that they were at last among Greek cities but it was not the end of their journey which included a period fighting for Seuthes II of Thrace and ended with their recruitment into the army of the Spartan general Thibron. Xenophon related this story in Anabasis in a simple and direct manner.</p> Independently published paperback

New/New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Xenophon</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Harvard University Press</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Hardcover</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9780674991019</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 1998</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 672</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> Greek mercenaries on the march.Xenophon ca. 430 to ca. 354 BC was a wealthy Athenian and friend of Socrates. He left Athens in 401 and joined an expedition including ten thousand Greeks led by the Persian governor Cyrus against the Persian king. After the defeat of Cyrus it fell to Xenophon to lead the Greeks from the gates of Babylon back to the coast through inhospitable lands. Later he wrote the famous vivid account of this “March Up-Country†Anabasis; but meanwhile he entered service under the Spartans against the Persian king married happily and joined the staff of the Spartan king Agesilaus. But Athens was at war with Sparta in 394 and so exiled Xenophon. The Spartans gave him an estate near Elis where he lived for years writing and hunting and educating his sons. Reconciled to Sparta Athens restored Xenophon to honor but he preferred to retire to Corinth. Xenophon’s Anabasis is a true story of remarkable adventures. Hellenica a history of Greek affairs from 411 to 362 begins as a continuation of Thucydides’ account. There are four works on Socrates collected in LCL 168. In Memorabilia Xenophon adds to Plato’s picture of Socrates from a different viewpoint. The Apology is an interesting complement to Plato’s account of Socrates’ defense at his trial. Xenophon’s Symposium portrays a dinner party at which Socrates speaks of love; and Oeconomicus has him giving advice on household management and married life. Cyropaedia a historical romance on the education of Cyrus the Elder reflects Xenophon’s ideas about rulers and government; the Loeb edition is in two volumes. We also have his Hiero a dialogue on government; Agesilaus in praise of that king; Constitution of Lacedaemon on the Spartan system; Ways and Means on the finances of Athens; Manual for a Cavalry Commander; a good manual of Horsemanship; and a lively Hunting with Hounds. The Constitution of the Athenians though clearly not by Xenophon is an interesting document on politics at Athens. These eight books are collected in the last of the seven volumes of the Loeb Classical Library edition of Xenophon.</p> Harvard University Press hardcover
