Anabasis

Anabasis pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025

Xenophon (ca. 430 to ca. 354 BCE) was a wealthy Athenian and friend of Socrates. He left Athens in 401 and joined an expedition including ten thousand Greeks led by the Persian governor Cyrus against the Persian king. After the defeat of Cyrus, it fell to Xenophon to lead the Greeks from the gates of Babylon back to the coast through inhospitable lands. Later he wrote the famous vivid account of this ’March Up-Country’ (Anabasis); but meanwhile he entered service under the Spartans against the Persian king, married happily, and joined the staff of the Spartan king, Agesilaus. But Athens was at war with Sparta in 394 and so exiled Xenophon. The Spartans gave him an estate near Elis where he lived for years writing and hunting and educating his sons. Reconciled to Sparta, Athens restored Xenophon to honour but he preferred to retire to Corinth.

Xenophon’s Anabasis is a true story of remarkable adventures. Hellenica, a history of Greek affairs from 411 to 362, begins as a continuation of Thucydides’ account. There are four works on Socrates (collected in Volume IV of the Loeb Xenophon edition). In Memorabilia Xenophon adds to Plato’s picture of Socrates from a different viewpoint. The Apology is an interesting complement to Plato’s account of Socrates’ defense at his trial. Xenophon’s Symposium portrays a dinner party at which Socrates speaks of love; and Oeconomicus has him giving advice on household management and married life. Cyropaedia, a historical romance on the education of Cyrus (the Elder), reflects Xenophon’s ideas about rulers and government; the Loeb edition is in two volumes.

We also have his Hiero, a dialogue on government; Agesilaus, in praise of that king; Constitution of Lacedaemon (on the Spartan system); Ways and Means (on the finances of Athens); Manual for a Cavalry Commander; a good manual of Horsemanship; and a lively Hunting with Hounds. The Constitution of the Athenians, though clearly not by Xenophon, is an interesting document on politics at Athens. These eight books are collected in the last of the seven volumes of the Loeb Classical Library edition of Xenophon.

他既非将官,也非队长或士兵。 ——色诺芬《长征记》 那个夜晚,希腊人陷入巨大的恐慌。他们在战场上失去了国王,现在又失去了将官和队长。他们身处波斯的腹地,没有盟友,没有给养。他们顾虑重重,精神沮丧,无心生火,也不返回营地。他们饥饿,却吃不下;他们困顿,却睡不着...

下面是《长征记》这个希腊名篇中的一段,因为作者色诺芬的文采非常出色,所以本书写得非常耐读,这也是他之所以能流传百世并且不仅让人当作是一本历史书来看也当作一个非凡的文学故事来看的原因。在卡尔维诺的《我们为什么读经典》也有单列一篇予以称赞。 波斯人居住在另...

As I get older, I become more appreciative of the challenges of true leadership: when the very survival of the group is at stake and the men are tired and hungry, how do you persuade them to do the right thing. It is only too easy to rumors and innuendos to spread. So much of the book seems to be a justification for the actions taken by the author.
