Xenophon and his World

Often depicted as an amateur who practised many trades badly, Xenophon is increasingly seen by a new generation of scholars as an important and distinctive voice on the history, society and thought-world of the later classical and pre-hellenistic era. The 24 papers published here originate from a ground-breaking Liverpool conference held to celebrate and build upon this transformation.Aus dem InhaltE. Badian: Xenophon the Athenian M.
