Dillery considers how far these texts reflect the Greek intellectual world of the fourth and fifth centuries B.C., rather than focusing on the traditional question of how accurate they are as histories. Through analysis of the complete corpus of Xenophon's work, and the writings of his contemporaries, Xenophon is shown to be very much a man of his times, concerned with topical issues ranging from panhellenism and utopia to how far the gods controlled human history.\u003cbr\u003eThis book will be valuable reading for students on ancient history courses and for all those interested in Greek political and philosophical thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Dillery\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 041509139X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415091398\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.94d","brand":"John Dillery","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064865730815,"sku":"9780415091398","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3a40be9b-455b-4ad8-936d-2ff1ccf1c9b7.jpg?v=1768671557","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/xenophon-and-the-history-of-john-dillery-9780415091398","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
