Traditionally, the employment of Greek soldiers by the Persian Achaemenid Empire and the Kingdom of Egypt during this period has been understood to indicate the military weakness of these polities and the superiority of Greek hoplites over their Near Eastern counterparts. I demonstrate that the purported superiority of Greek heavy infantry has been exaggerated by Greco-Roman authors. Furthermore, close examination of Greek mercenary service reveals that the recruitment of Greek soldiers was not the purpose of Achaemenid foreign policy in Greece and the Aegean, but was instead an indication of the political subordination of prominent Greek citizens and poleis, conducted through the social institution of xenia, to Persian satraps and kings.

Using traditional philology combined with social constructionist theory I examine how Thucydides and Xenophon depict Spartan masculinity. I have found that these authors differ in their descriptions of the Spartan masculine subject, reflecting primarily the purposes for which they wrote. Despite this, both authors describe inter-Spartan relations and relations between Spartiates and “others”, both within the Spartan system and those external to it, so as to suggest that the employment of officially propagated images of Spartan masculinity played a significant role in Spartan dealings.

  • Reelection to the Ephorate? Westlake, H D Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies; Winter 1976; 17, 4; Proquest Pg
    Reelection to the Ephorate? Westlake, H D Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies; Winter 1976; 17, 4; ProQuest pg. 343 Reelection to the Ephorate? H. D. Westlake NY CONSTITUTIONAL LIMITATION on reelection to a collegiate A magistracy is bound to affect the character both of the magistracy itself and of the political system to which it belongs. According to Aristotle it was a principle of democracy that no one might hold the same office more than once, apart from offices involving military responsibilities and a few others.1 This principle is seen to have been strictly observed in the fully developed Athenian democracy.2 In the forms of oligarchy in which magistracies were elective, there seems normally to have been no restriction on re­ election, though in some instances a further term of office was permitted only after an interval of some years.3 The question whether at Sparta anyone who served as ephor was eligible to serve again, in the following year or after an interval, is strangely obscure. Its obscurity is not attributable to the notorious Spartan secretiveness, of which Thucydides complains (5.68.2): the Spartans could hardly have concealed the names of their ephors and do not appear to have tried to do so. Explicit evidence on this point seems to be lacking, and the principles relating to democracy and oligarchy do not suggest an answer, since the Spartan constitution was a mixture containing elements of both.4 In a somewhat confused passage of the Politics Aristotle describes the ephorate both as democratic and as tyrannical (2.1270b 8-28).

  • Xenophon's Hellenica
    chapter three Xenophon’s Hellenica enophon’s Hellenica is notorious for omissions of fact and inequali- Xties of treatment.1 These flaws could be explained by the theory that Xenophon wrote different sections at different times, without fully unify- ing it as a whole. Nevertheless, the Hellenica is coherent as it stands, and Xenophon is certainly consistent in his views on moral virtue through- out; I therefore treat it as a unified whole.2 In the past, the facile explana- 1. Unless otherwise specified, all references to Xenophon in this chapter are from the Hellenica. 2. It is a longstanding debate whether or not Xenophon wrote his Hellenica as a continu- ous whole, in view of the distinctive differences between 1–2.3.10 in particular and the rest of the work. The definitive expression of the “analysts’” viewpoint, that Xenophon composed the different sections of the Hellenica at different times, is that of Malcolm MacLaren (“On the Composition of Xenophon’s Hellenica,” AJP 55 [1934]: 121–39, 249–62). The strong- est arguments for the opposite camp, the “unitarians,” who believe that Xenophon composed the Hellenica as a unified whole, are made by W. P. Henry (Greek Historical Writing: A Historiographical Essay Based on Xenophon’s Hellenica [Chicago: Argonaut, 1967]). Because Xenophon must have written much of the Hellenica long before the time of the Battle of Mantinea (the last event contained in this work), there are necessarily slight variations in language and expression. These need not, however, obscure the essential unity of the work in purpose and methods; see also W.

    The "Final Problem" at Thermopylae Evans, J A S Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies; Winter 1964; 5, 4; ProQuest pg. 231 The "Final Problem" at Thermopylae J. A. S. Evans HE FINAL PROBLEM of Thermopylae has been neatly defined by THow and Wells, HWhat was the purpose of Leonidas clinging to his position at Thermopylae when it had apparently become untenable ?"1 The question has lost none of its attraction, for in the last four years it has received three fresh treatments. One ingenious solution, proposed by J. R. Grant,2 would have it that Leonidas was acting in deliberate disobedience to his orders for reasons which are to be sought in the internal politics of Sparta and in the king's own stubborn character. A. Dascalakis3 returns to the military solution which has already been put forward by a number of scholars:4 Leonidas stayed behind to cover the retreat of his allies who would otherwise have been cut down by the Persian cavalry. C. Hignett, who devotes an appendix in his Xerxes' Invasion of Greece to this problem, reviews the opinions of earlier scholars, but in the end, he himself comes to no satisfactory solution. HIn the face of the breakdown of all modern explanations, the <final problem' of Thermopylai is best left an unsolved riddle; agnosticism is preferable to a pretence of knowledge."5 However, two generations of scholars have preferred the pretence of knowledge. With very few exceptions, they have been unwilling to accept what we may call the Hofficial explanation" whereby Leonidas' last stand was an act of devotio, made to save his country from des­ truction.

  • Piety in Xenophon's Theory of Leadership
    Histos Supplement ( ) – PIETY IN XENOPHON’S THEORY OF LEADERSHIP * Michael A. Flower Abstract : The central theme in Xenophon’s writings is to isolate and articulate the qualities of the ideal leader. His ideal leader secures consent to his leadership, treats his followers as friends, and works for their mutual success as a group with shared interests. An additional essential aspect, however, has escaped the attention of most modern scholars. This aspect is Xenophon’s emphasis on the leader’s piety and on his ability to maintain a proper relationship with the gods. He principally does this by securing their advice and goodwill through sacrifice, divination, and the avoidance of impious actions. In this article the stress on the leader’s piety as the sine qua non of effective leadership is traced through Xenophon’s corpus. Keywords : Xenophon, piety, leadership, divination, seer, sacrifice. he December , issue of the New York Times Sunday Book Review contains a review the likes of Twhich no scholar would ever wish to receive. It is of a book by Alain de Botton and John Armstrong called Art As Therapy ( ) and begins: Who’s afraid of Alain de Botton?

    THRACE AND THE ATHENIAN ELITE, CA. 550-338 BCE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Matthew Alan Sears May 2011 © 2011 Matthew Alan Sears THRACE AND THE ATHENIAN ELITE, CA. 550-338 BCE Matthew Alan Sears, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 This dissertation examines the personal ties between elite Athenians and Thrace from the mid sixth century to the mid fourth century BCE in four case studies – the Philaids and the Thracian Chersonese, Dieitrephes and the massacre at Mycalessus, the northern campaigns of Alcibiades and Thrasybulus, and the fourth century mercenary general Iphicrates. In order to highlight further the particular qualities of those elites who were drawn to Thrace, the final chapter examines figures that shared several traits with Athenian Thracophiles but did not make extensive use of Thracian ties. The relationship between Athens and Thrace is explored in terms of three broad categories – political, military, and cultural. Given that there continued to be ambitious elites in Athens even after Solon‟s reforms and the subsequent climate of increasing political equality between male citizens, Thrace served as a political safety valve. Thrace was a place to which elites could remove themselves should they be unwilling or unable to engage in the prevailing ideological system and should mechanisms like ostracism fail to achieve the desired result, such as the removal of their more powerful competition. Experience with Thracians was often the catalyst for military innovation. Several Athenians were pioneers in adopting Thracian methods of warfare.
