Xenophon

Xenophon was an Athenian country gentleman born about 430 BC. He may have helped to publish Thucydides’ History, and certainly wrote his own Hellenica as a continuation of it. By his own (probably reliable) account he was a fine officer and outstanding leader, but his admiration for Sparta and devotion to Socrates, among other causes, led to his banishment. He was given an estate at Scillus and settled down to enjoy the life of a landed aristocrat, and it was during this period that he began to write histories, biographies, memoirs and specialist treatises. The defeat of Sparta in 371 forced him to move to Corinth where he probably lived for the rest of his life.

Samenvatting

A remarkable tale about a historical expedition. Here, in one of the most famous books by Xenophon, the author gives first hand account of the celebrated march of ten thousand Greeks towards Persia to aid Cyrus the Younger. Cyrus sets out to dethrone his brother Artaxerxes in Persia. It is a vivid account which transports us to the author's time, and enables us to relive the sensational adventure.
