4.0 out of 5 stars I am happy now to have studied Greek as I can show ...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 31, 2014
Verified Purchase
Many decades ago in secondary school, I studied on of the Books of Xenophon's Anabasis as part of our Greek syllabus. Classical Greek of course, there was no way we were going to be taught a living language. Things have changed now and my children are offered Classical studies which includes Latin as well as Greek. Needless to say few take up this option. I am happy now to have studied Greek as I can show off to my children by reading the Greek inscriptions in ruins like Ephesus. Xenophon passed close to Ephesus on his way to the Persian king. He landed in the port of Ephesus and after a few days march crossed the Meander Ephesus - Efes in Turkish - is no longer a port, being miles inland. The Meander is still there, meandering its way to the Aegean. I digress. This book is a sort of philosophical commentary on Xenophon's march through mountains and deserts. Persia was a foreign and almost a fabled land where knowledge was valued and the utmost luxuries were available. The contrast with Greece, where Xenophon and his 10, 000 were from, was massive.
