Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Xenophon. 7, Scripta Minora' offers a comprehensive collection of the shorter works by the celebrated Athenian historian and soldier, Xenophon. This volume showcases the remarkable versatility of an author who moved beyond historical narrative to explore political philosophy, military science, and practical skills. Included in this collection are 'Hiero,' a dialogue on the nature of tyranny and happiness; 'Agesilaus,' a panegyric to the Spartan king; and 'The Constitution of the Lacedaemonians,' an insightful examination of Spartan society and law. Beyond political and biographical subjects, the 'Scripta Minora' includes practical treatises that reflect the daily interests and professional duties of a Greek gentleman. Xenophon provides expert guidance in 'On Horsemanship' and 'The Cavalry Commander,' works that remain foundational in the history of equestrian arts and military leadership. 'On Hunting' offers a window into the recreational and moral value placed on the chase in antiquity, while 'Ways and Means' explores economic strategies for the prosperity of Athens.
