Xenophon
Over de Auteur
Xenophon was a prominent ancient Greek historian, philosopher, and soldier, most renowned for his writings on history and philosophy. Born in Athens around 430 BC, he was a contemporary of Socrates and was influenced by his philosophical teachings. His most famous works include "Anabasis," which recounts his experiences as a mercenary in Persia, and "Hellenica," a history of Greece that picks up where Thucydides left off. These texts not only provide insights into the military and political landscape of ancient Greece but also reflect Xenophon's ideas about leadership and virtue.
