Original brochure. Condizione: Gut. 337 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Dedication page slightly detached from adhesive binding, otherwise a good and clean copy. - From the preface: I have written this book from the conviction that Xenophons longer hiistorical works, the Hellenica and Anabasis, have a great deal to tell us about how one thoughtful man of unusually wide experience Attempted to make sense of the history of his times. The perspective it takes is not adversarial, as though Xenophon was a witness who was either unable to tell us the things we wish to know, or was unwilling; rather, this book takes account of what he wanted to tell us. and suggests reasons why he might have felt that way. It does not censure, it explains. My chief concern has been twofold: first, to place the discussion of the Hellenica and Anabasis in the larger context of Xenophons entire corpus, in order to see with greater clarity the structures of his thought; and second, to look at how his contemporaries or near-contemporaries grappled with issues that also come up in his work. Thus I hope that a better understanding of how Xenophon viewed his world will emerge, as well as an awareness of how his thinking was like and unlike those who lived at about the same time he did. The period Xenophon covered in his historical writing was a crucial one, not only for Greek political-military history, but also for Greek intellectual history, in »rich ideas that can be recognized, roughly speaking, as Classical or even 'Archaic were being gradually modulated and changed into ones we might style Hellenistic.
