Description & Specifications

Books VI-VII: The events from 374 to 362 BC. The hegemony of the Thebans. The Spartans are defeated at Leuctra (371 BC) and at Mantinea (362 BC).

Xenophon was born between 440 and 425 BC. He came from a wealthy family in Athens and as a young man he was a student of Socrates. His love for military life, perhaps a consequence of his admiration for the Doric ideal, overcame his inclination towards philosophy.

In 401 BC, he went to Persia, where he followed Cyrus in his campaign against his brother Artaxerxes II. After the battle at Cunaxa, he was elected general by the Ten Thousand Greek mercenaries.

The works of Xenophon, historical, philosophical, and didactic, are, on one hand, an important source for the events of his time and, on the other hand, a composition of moral and pedagogical reflections, in a spirit of simplicity, while characterized by the artistic and clear Attic discourse.
