From the editor of the widely praised The Landmark Thucydides & The Landmark Herodotus here is a new edition of Xenophons Hellenika the primary source for the events of the final seven years & aftermath of the Peloponnesian War. Hellenika covers the years between 411 & 362 B.C.E. a particularly dramatic period during which the alliances among Athens Sparta Thebes & Persia were in constant flux. Together with the volumes of Herodotus & Thucydides it completes an ancient narrative of the military & political history of classical Greece. Beautifully illustrated heavily annotated & filled with detailed clear maps this edition gives us a new authoritative & completely accessible translation by John Marincola a comprehensive introduction by David Thomas sixteen appendices written by leading classics scholars & an extensive timeline/chronology to clarify this otherwise confusing period. Unlike any other edition of the Hellenika it also

Includes:: the relevant texts of Diodorus Siculus & the Oxyrhynchus Historian with explanatory footnotes & a table that correlates passages of the three works which is perhaps crucial to an assessment of Xenophons reliability & quality as a historian. Like the two Landmark editions that precede it The Landmark Xenophons Hellenika is the most readable & comprehensive edition yet of an essential history.
