 Demagogues, Power, and Friendship in Classical Athens Leaders as Friends in Aristophanes, Euripides, and Xenophon【電子書籍】[ Professor Robert Holschuh Simmons ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞What makes a demagogue? A much more friendly touch, or more importantly, a perception of a friendly touch, than has previously been explored. ＜em＞Demagogues, Power and Friendship in Classical Athens＜/em＞ examines the ways in which a demagogic leadership style based on personal connection became ingrained in this period, drawing on close study of several genres of literature of the late 5th and early-to-mid 4th centuries BCE. Such connection was particularly effective with lower classes of Athenians, who had been accustomed to being excluded from politicians' friendship-based approaches to coalition-building.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Comedies of Aristophanes (particularly ＜em＞Knights)＜/em＞, tragedies of Euripides (particularly ＜em＞Iphigenia in Aulis＜/em＞), and historical biographies of Xenophon (particularly ＜em＞Anabasis＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Cyropaedia＜/em＞) depict demagogues, or characters exhibiting demagogic characteristics, using a style of outreach to members of neglected classes that involved provoking feelings of friendship with individuals in these classes, whether the demagogues and individual supporters actually interacted closely or not. These leaders employed techniques, such as propinquity, homophily, and transitivity, that both contemporary sociologists (and, in some cases, Aristotle) recognize as effective for such purposes. Particular attention is paid to discrepancies in Aristophanes' ＜em＞Knights＜/em＞ between how the demagogue Cleon is hyperbolically portrayed (as a pederastic lover of the Athenian people) and how his language and actions make him out ? as a friend of theirs, as he likely portrayed himself.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,975円 |

 Hiero the Tyrant and Other Treatises【電子書籍】[ Xenophon ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞One of Socrates' Athenian disciples in his youth, Xenophon (c. 498-354 bc) fought as a mercenary commander in Cyrus the Younger's campaign to seize the Persian throne, and later wrote a wide range of works on history, politics and philosophy. These six treatises offer his informed insights into the nature of leadership. In the dialogue between the poet Simonides and Hiero, tyrant of Syracuse, Xenophon provides a consummate consideration of the burdens of being an absolute dictator and the superior happiness of the private man. Elsewhere, his biography of King Agesilaus II of Sparta depicts the author's patron as a model of piety, justice, courage and wisdom, while other texts consider the essential qualities of the cavalry commander, analyse the skills of the horseman and the hunter, and advance a bold economic plan for democratic Athens.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,586円 |
 Wealth in Ancient Ephesus and the First Letter to Timothy Fresh Insights from Ephesiaca by Xenophon of Ephesus【電子書籍】[ Gary G. Hoag ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Scholars are divided in their views about the teachings on riches in 1 Timothy. Evidence that has been largely overlooked in NT scholarship appears in ＜em＞Ephesiaca＜/em＞ by Xenophon of Ephesus and suggests that the topic be revisited. Recently dated to the mid-first century C.E., ＜em＞Ephesiaca＜/em＞ brings to life what is known from ancient sources about the social setting and cultural rules of the wealthy in Ephesus and provides details that enhance our knowledge of life and society in that place and time.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this volume, Hoag introduces ＜em＞Ephesiaca＜/em＞ and employs a socio-rhetorical methodology to explore it alongside other ancient evidence and five passages in 1 Timothy (2:9?15; 3:1?13; 6:1?2a; 6:2b?10; and 6:17?19). His findings augment our modern conception of the Sitz im Leben of the wealthy in Ephesus. Additionally, because ＜em＞Ephesiaca＜/em＞ contains some rare terms and themes that are found in 1 Timothy, this groundbreaking research offers fresh insight for biblical reading and interpretation.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 6,523円 |
 Estate Management and Symposium【電子書籍】[ Xenophon ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Xenophon was acknowledged in Antiquity as a philosopher, a historian (third in the triad of great Classical historians, alongside Herodotus and Thucydides), and a literary artist. His narrative was appreciated for its literary qualities including its charm, wit, vigour, and sweetness (for which he was hailed as 'Attic Muse': Diogenes Laertius, 2.6.57). The ＜em＞Oeconomicus＜/em＞ describes Socrates conversing on the topic of successful management of one's oikos (household, estate). The focus is a well-to-do Athenian household, which proves a testing ground for the moral qualities or 'gentlemanliness' of the male head of household, but also a space in which the role and agency of women turns out to be key. ＜em＞Symposium＜/em＞ shifts to the male space of the men's quarters of the private home, to describe an evening of conversation and entertainment at the house of an Athenian plutocrat. Far from being simply a lighthearted affair, the conversation probes timeless questions regarding wisdom, love, and female capacity, and over it looms the deadly serious matter of Socrates' trial and death. Both works are rich sources for Athenian social history of the Classical period. ＜em＞Oeconomicus＜/em＞ in particular offers insights on the role and status of women in Ancient Athens. Xenophon doesn't, however, passively reflect the social realities he saw around him or supply snapshots of historical actuality.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 663円 |
 Xenophon And The History Of His Times【電子書籍】[ John Dillery ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜em＞Xenophon and the History of his Times＜/em＞ examines Xenophon's longer historical works, the ＜em＞Hellenica＜/em＞ and the ＜em＞Anabasis＜/em＞. 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.＜br /＞ This book will be valuable reading for students on ancient history courses and for all those interested in Greek political and philosophical thought.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 11,884円 |

 Xenophon and the Athenian Democracy The Education of an Elite Citizenry【電子書籍】[ Matthew R. Christ ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book seeks to understand Xenophon as an elite Athenian writing largely for an elite Athenian audience in the first half of the fourth century BC. It argues that Xenophon calls on men of his own class to set aside their assumptions of superiority based on birth or wealth and to reinvent themselves as individuals who can provide effective leadership to the democratic city and serve it as good citizens. Xenophon challenges, criticizes, and sometimes satirizes the Athenian elite, and seeks to instruct them concerning the values, knowledge, and practical skills they will need to succeed as civic leaders. Xenophon is thus best understood not as an aristocratic dinosaur who is out of place in a democratic setting, as some have assumed, but as a thoughtful and pragmatic reformist who seeks to ensure that meritorious members of the elite step forward to lead within the democracy.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,862円 |
 The Life and Legacy of Socrates Xenophon's Memoires of Socrates and His Teachings: Memorabilia, Apology, The Economist, Symposium…【電子書籍】[ Xenophon ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞As a student of Socrates, Xenophon, like Plato, is an authority on Socrates. Except for the dialogues of Plato, Xenophon's writings are the only surviving representatives of the genre of Socratic dialogue. These works include Xenophon's Apology, Memorabilia, Symposium, and Economist. The Symposium outlines the character of Socrates as he and his companions discuss what attribute they take pride in. In Economist, Socrates explains how to manage a household. Both the Apology and Memorabilia defend Socrates' character and teachings. The former is set during the trial of Socrates, essentially defending Socrates' loss and death, while the latter is a defense of Socrates, explaining his moral principles and that he was not a corrupter of the youth.

 The Cavalry General Enriched edition. Insights into Ancient Cavalry Strategies and Leadership【電子書籍】[ Xenophon ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In "The Cavalry General," Xenophon offers a meticulous examination of cavalry tactics and leadership, intertwining practical advice with philosophical insights. Written in a straightforward yet engaging style characteristic of his historical works, the text serves as both a manual for military leaders and a tribute to the complexities of cavalry warfare in Ancient Greece. Through vivid descriptions and structured discourse, Xenophon explores the intricacies of cavalry formations, the importance of unity and discipline, and the necessity of strategic foresight in the heat of battle, situating his observations within the broader context of classical military thought. Xenophon was not only a historian but also a soldier who participated in various military campaigns, most notably the Persian expedition. His experiences in the field deeply inform his writings, granting authenticity and authority to his perspective on military theory and practice. As a student of Socrates, his philosophical background influences his exploration of leadership ethics, making "The Cavalry General" as much a treatise on moral conduct as it is a tactical guide. Recommended for military historians, strategists, and philosophy enthusiasts alike, "The Cavalry General" remains an essential text for understanding the art of cavalry in ancient warfare.

 Memories of Socrates Memorabilia and Apology【電子書籍】[ Xenophon ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞'Who would you say knows himself?'＜/strong＞ In 399 BCE Socrates was tried in Athens on charges of irreligion and corruption of the young, convicted, and sentenced to death. Like Plato, an almost exact contemporary, in his youth Xenophon (c. 430-c. 354 BCE) was one of the circle of mainly upper-class young Athenians attracted to Socrates' teaching. His ＜em＞Memorabilia＜/em＞ is both a passionate defence of Socrates against those charges, and a kaleidoscopic picture of the man he knew, painted in a series of mini-dialogues and shorter vignettes, with a varied and deftly characterized cast--entitled and ambitious young men, atheists and hedonists, artists and artisans, Socrates' own stroppy teenage son Lamprocles, the glamorous courtesan Theodote. Topics given Socrates' characteristic questioning treatment include education, law, justice, government, political and military leadership, democracy and tyranny, friendship, care of the body and the soul, and concepts of the divine. Xenophon sees Socrates as above all a supreme moral educator, coaxing and challenging his associates to make themselves better people, not least by the example of how he lived his own life. Self-knowledge, leading to a reasoned self-control, was for Socrates the essential first step on the path to virtue, and some found it uncomfortable. The ＜em＞Apology＜/em＞ is a moving account of Socrates' behaviour and bearing in his last days, immediately before, during, and after his trial.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 746円 |
 Xenophon's Socratic Education Reason, Religion, and the Limits of Politics【電子書籍】[ Dustin Sebell ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A careful reading of Book IV of Xenophon's ＜em＞Memorabilia＜/em＞ and a demonstration of a Socratic education＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞It is well known that Socrates was executed by the city of Athens for not believing in the gods and for corrupting the youth. Despite this, it is not widely known what he really thought, or taught the youth to think, about philosophy, the gods, and political affairs. Of the few authors we rely on for firsthand knowledge of SocratesーAristophanes, Xenophon, Plato, and Aristotleーonly Xenophon, the least read of the four, lays out the whole Socratic education in systematic order.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞Xenophon's Socratic Education＜/em＞, through a careful reading of Book IV of Xenophon's ＜em＞Memorabilia＜/em＞, Dustin Sebell shows how Socrates ascended, with his students in tow, from opinions about morality or politics and religion to knowledge of such things. Besides revealing what it was that Socrates really thoughtーabout everything from self-knowledge to happiness, natural theology to natural law, and rhetoric to dialecticーSebell demonstrates how Socrates taught promising youths, like Xenophon or Plato, only indirectly: by jokingly teaching unpromising youths in their presence. Sebell ultimately shows how Socrates, the founder of moral and political philosophy, sought and found an answer to the all-important question: should we take our bearings in life from human reason, or revealed religion?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,384円 |
 Ancient Classical Greece Brief essays on Homer, the Iliad, the Odyssey, Themistocles, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Herodotus, Thucydides, Xenophon, and Pericles【電子書籍】[ Mary Duffy ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Scholars often write about Athens being the cradle of justice and democracy, about its embellishment, the magnificent temples, public buildings, sculptures, exquisite pottery, and above all the drama, literature, rhetoric, and philosophy that flourished in Classical Greece; but scarce are the commentaries on the soul of the Golden Greeks. Thus, in his funeral oration, Pericles says:＜/p＞ ＜p＞"I wish rather to set forth the spirit in which we faced them [battles], and the constitution and manners with which we rose to greatness."＜/p＞ ＜p＞The philosopher Heraclitus said: "Character is destiny."＜/p＞ ＜p＞Along these lines, this book will emphasize the inner forces that formed the spirit and character of the ancient Greeks, rather than the outside forces. So, conjugal devotion, honor, love, and fidelity shaped their greatness. In ten intensive keys we shall read about the Greek Gods, the poet Homer, The Iliad, the Odyssey, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Themistocles, The Historians (Herodotus, Xenophon, and Thucydides), culminating with "the first citizen" of Athens: Pericles.＜/p＞ ＜p＞And to have a complete vista, we include appendices about the Mycenaean and Minoan cultures, the curse of the House of Atreus, a summary of the ＜em＞Iliad＜/em＞ and the ＜em＞Odyssey,＜/em＞ and a brief list of Greek Gods, and goddesses.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book dispenses with footnotes, indexes, or scholarly language; it is for the soul-searching, self-taught, self-made individuals who thirst to educate themselves.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,383円 |
