Warfare in Ancient Greece: A Sourcebook
278651142.001.png
WARFARE
IN ANCIENT GREECE
Warfare in Ancient Greece assembles a wide range of source material and
introduces the latest scholarship on the Greek experience of war. The author
has carefully selected key texts, many of them not previously available in
English, and provided them with comprehensive commentaries.
For the Greek polis, warfare was a more usual state of affairs than peace.
The documents assembled here recreate the social and historical framework
in which ancient Greek warfare took place—over a period of more than a
thousand years from the Homeric Age to the first century BC. Special attention
is paid to the attitudes and feelings of the Greeks towards defeated peoples
and captured cities.
Complete with notes, index and bibliography, Warfare in Ancient Greece
will provide students of ancient and military history with an unprecedented
survey of relevant materials.
Michael M.Sage is Professor of Classics and Ancient History at the University
of Cincinnati. He has published widely on Tacitus and aspects of ancient
military history.
