书籍简介

色诺芬的《历史》叙述了公元前411年至362年期间希腊近50年的动荡战争。在修昔底德完成其巨著历史的地方继续讲述伯罗奔尼撒战争的故事，这是一部引人入胜的编年史，记载了导致希腊衰落的冲突，以及与底比斯和波斯的战争。色诺芬是雅典人，但却成为斯巴达事业的坚定支持者，并在科罗尼亚战役中与雅典人作战。

这本书结合了历史和回忆录，出色地描述了城邦的胜利和失败，并描绘了危机时期的希腊。

Xenophon's History recounts nearly fifty turbulent years of warfare in Greece between 411 and 362 BC. Continuing the story of the Peloponnesian War at the point where Thucydides finished his magisterial history, this is a fascinating chronicle of the conflicts that ultimately led to the decline of Greece, and the wars with both Thebes and the might of Persia. An Athenian by birth, Xenophon became a firm supporter of the Spartan cause, and fought against the Athenians in the battle of Coronea.

Combining history and memoir, this is a brilliant account of the triumphs and failures of city-states, and a portrait of Greece at a time of crisis.
