O Autorze
Xenophon was an ancient Greek historian, philosopher, and soldier, best known for his writings on the history of his time, particularly the Anabasis, which details his journey and experiences after the Battle of Cunaxa. He was a student of Socrates and often reflected Socratic ideas in his works. His accounts provide valuable insight into the cultural and political landscapes of ancient Greece, especially during the Peloponnesian War and the rise of the Macedonian Empire.
In addition to his historical narratives, Xenophon contributed significantly to the fields of philosophy and military strategy. His writings on the character of Socrates are particularly notable, as they offer a different perspective compared to those of Plato. Through his works, Xenophon has influenced generations of scholars, historians, and philosophers, cementing his place as a significant figure in the Western literary canon.
