Xenophon'S Anabasis: A Socratic History by Shane Brennan Hardcover Book

Description: Xenophon'S Anabasis by Shane Brennan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Offers a novel reading of one of the ancient worlds most famous and celebrated texts. Publisher Description Xenophons Anabasis has engaged and entertained readers from antiquity to the present day. Through his telling of the story of Cyrus the Youngers attempt on the Persian throne and its aftermath, Xenophon integrates many of the prominent themes and concerns in his writings, including leadership, panhellenism, Sparta and apologia. Adopting an interdisciplinary perspective, Brennan offers a fresh reading of the text which originates in a broad-ranging consideration of Xenophons aims in writing the book some thirty years after the event. The central argument brings the presence of Socrates into relief and demonstrates how the author, representing himself in the story as a model pupil of the philosopher, perpetuates Socratic teachings and values through Xenophons leadership. Ultimately, Anabasis is revealed to be a Socratic history, a narrative rooted in a historical event or period and in which the author embeds a reflection of the philosopher and his values.
