Produktinformationen zu „Xenophon's ?Anabasis? and its Reception (PDF)“
This volume constitutes the first large-scale collaborative reflection on Xenophon's Anabasis, gathering experts on Greek historiography and Xenophon. It is structured in three sections: the first section provides a linear reading of the Anabasis through chapters on select episodes (from Book 1 through Book 7), including the opening, Cyrus' characterisation, the meeting of Socrates and Xenophon, Xenophon's leadership, the marches through Armenia and along the Black Sea coast and the service under Seuthes in Thrace.
The second section offers an in-depth exploration of hitherto overlooked recurrent themes. Based on new approaches and scholarly trends, it focuses on topics such as the concept of friendship, the speeches of characters other than Xenophon, the suffering of the human body, the role of rumour and misrepresentation, and the depiction of emotions.
The third section offers a more thorough investigation of the manifold reception of this work (in Antiquity, Byzantium, Renaissance, modern period, in cinema studies and illustrations).
Finally, in acknowledgement of the Anabasis' long history as a pedagogical text, the volume contains an envoi on the importance and benefits of teaching Xenophon and the Anabasis, more specifically.
