  • THE FIFTH COLUMN in the STRATEGY of the WAR the Fifth

    THE FIFTH COLUMN in the STRATEGY of the WAR the Fifth

    CHAPTER SEVEN THE FIFTH COLUMN IN THE STRATEGY OF THE WAR The fifth column was a major instrument of strategy in the Peloponnesian War. This is clear from the fact that each side employed fifth columns regularly throughout the war. As we have already noted, the necessities of warfare made the exploitation of a fifth column the most efficient method of capturing a city.1 This combined with the internal divisions in ·the Greek cities 2 resulted in the courting of fifth columns by each side. In addition to the captures accomplished or attempted by treachery, attacking forces sometimes hoped for help from within even when no plot to betray the city had been arranged. When Agis marched on the walls of Athens in 4u he was looking for some movement to agree to terms favorable to Sparta following the oligarchic coup (8.71.1). After the destruction of Eetionea, Thucydides says that Hege­ sander was hovering off Epidaurus, perhaps in accordance with a prearranged understanding, but probably in the hope that, given the dissension in Athens, an opportunity might arise (8.94.2). In other words, Hegesander was probably "fishing" for a fifth column. The expedition of Sicanus to Acragas which was in stasis also may have been an angling for an act of support, perhaps' even betrayal, by the pro-Syracusan faction. 3 Whether or not a city was in stasis, it was good strategy for an attacking army to negotiate with a group inside if possible. Nicias did this at Cythera and the result was the capitulation.4 Even more indicative of the role which the fifth column played in stategic thinking are two cases in which the idea that a betrayal was in the works was falsely planted to achieve an objective.

    Violence and the Sea: a Digital Analysis of Maritime Acts of Violence Committed by Alcibiades As Described by Thucydides, Xenophon, and Plutarch1

    Violence and the Sea: A Digital Analysis of Maritime Acts of Violence Committed by Alcibiades as Described by Thucydides, Xenophon, and Plutarch1 Werner Riess Abstract: In comparing the patterns of violence committed by Alcibiades in the works of Thucydides, Plutarch, and Xenophon, significant differences emerge in the focus of the three authors and can be represented visually by “Eris. The Hamburg Information System on the Representation of Greek and Roman Violence.” The fact that the interpretation of graphic findings – that is, second-order categories – nevertheless leads to highly plausible results demonstrates that this proof of concept was successful. The plausible results also suggest that, by using Eris, we will find previously undiscovered patterns of violence in the investigation of the big data of ancient texts. Graphs will thus serve as sources of inspi- ration that will open up new questions that have not yet entered our thinking due to the vast volumes of data. In a recent essay,2 Christoph Schäfer demonstrated that Alcibiades was less concerned with conquering Sicily than with controlling the sea routes and that he therefore also pursued strategic economic interests off the coast of Sicily. Moreover, in contrast to the historian Thucydides, who essentially perceived of the world from the point of view of the land, Alcibiades also viewed the sea as a space for action. In this article, the violent acts committed by Alcibiades – especially those performed at sea – are dealt with more generally. For this purpose, it is essential to examine these maritime acts of violence in the context of all the acts of violence in which Alcibiades was involved as only this method enables us to reveal the discrepancy between his actions on land and at sea.

    Divine Genealogies: a Sourcebook for Greek and Roman Mythology

    Divine Genealogies: A Sourcebook for Greek and Roman Mythology E. Edward Garvin, Editor ©2015 What follows is a collection of excerpts from Greek literary sources in translation. The intent is to give students an overview of Greek mythology as expressed by the Greeks themselves. But any such collection is inherently flawed: the process of selection and abridgement produces a falsehood because both the narrative and meta-narrative are destroyed when the continuity of the composition is interrupted. Nevertheless, this seems the most expedient way to expose students to a wide range of primary source information. I have tried to keep my voice out of it as much as possible and will intervene as editor (in this Times New Roman font) only to give background or exegesis to the text. All of the texts in Goudy Old Style are excerpts from Greek or Latin texts (primary sources) that have been translated into English. Ancient Texts In the field of Classics, we refer to texts by Author, name of the book, book number, chapter number and line number.1 Every text, regardless of language, uses the same numbering system. Homer’s Iliad, for example, is divided into 24 books and the lines in each book are numbered. Hesiod’s Theogony is much shorter so no book divisions are necessary but the lines are numbered. Below is an example from Homer’s Iliad, Book One, showing the English translation on the left and the Greek original on the right. When citing this text we might say that Achilles is first mentioned by Homer in Iliad 1.7 (i.7 is also acceptable).

Gylippus and Pythen, after refitting their ships, sailed from Tarentuin along the coast to Epizephy- rian Locri ; and receiving more positive informa- tion that Syracuse Avas not yet completely invested, but that it was still possible to come with an army and enter it by way of Epipolae, they deliberated whether they should risk sailing into the harbour, keeping Sicily on the right, or, keeping it on the left, should first sail to Himera and then, after having added to their forces the Himeraeans themselves and such others as they might persuade, should proceed overland. They decided to sail to Himera, especially since the four Athenian ships —which Nicias did after all ^ despatch when he learned that the enemy's shij)s were at Locri — had not yet arrived at Rhegium.
