Poroi
Author: Xenophon
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
In Poroi, Xenophon examines the meaning of prosperity and its relationship to employment, consumption and expenditure in a way that no one else would until John Maynard Keynes wrote The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money. The observations of Xenophon and Keynes agree on many points. This study strives to clarify Xenophon's importance as an economic thinker and the originator of the study of macroeconomics. Because the only readily available English translation of Poroi is Marchant's Loeb edition, it provides a contemporary and accessible rendering of the Greek into English. This critical edition also incorporates recent scholarship and remedies some difficulties in the critical apparatuses of earlier editions.

Xenophon's Prince
Author: Christopher Nadon
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520925122
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
For over two millennia, the Cyropaedia, an imaginative biography of the Persian king Cyrus the Great, was Xenophon's most popular work and considered his masterpiece. This study contributes to the recent rediscovery of the Cyropaedia and Xenophon, making intelligible the high esteem in which writers of the stature of Machiavelli held Xenophon's works and the importance of his place among classical authors. The ending of the Cyropaedia has presented a notoriously difficult puzzle for scholars. The bulk of the work seems to idealize the career of Cyrus, but the final chapter documents the swift and disastrous degeneration of the empire he founded. This conclusion seems to call his achievements into question. Nadon resolves this long-standing interpretive difficulty and demonstrates for the first time the overall coherence and unity of the Cyropaedia. He elucidates the Xenophontic critique of Cyrus contained within the whole of the work and unearths its analysis of the limitations of both republican and imperial politics. This provocative and original treatment of the Cyropaedia will be a definitive step in restoring the status of this important work. Nadon's lively, insightful study draws upon his deep knowledge and understanding of classical political theory and reveals in the Cyropaedia a subtlety and sophistication overlooked until now.
