    Extractions: [1.1.1] The thought once occurred to us how many republics have been overthrown by people who preferred to live under any form of government other than a republican, and again, how many monarchies and how many oligarchies in times past have been abolished by the people. We reflected, moreover, how many of those individuals who have aspired to absolute power have either been deposed once for all and that right quickly; or if they have continued in power, no matter for how short a time, they are objects of wonder as having proved to be wise and happy men. Then, too, we had observed, we thought, that even in private homes some people who had rather more than the usual number of servants and some also who had only a very few were nevertheless, though nominally masters, quite unable to assert their authority over even those few. [1.1.2] And in addition to this, we reflected that are the rulers of their horses, and that all who are called herdsmen might properly be regarded as the rulers of the animals over which they are placed in charge. Now we noticed, as we thought, that all these herds obeyed their keepers more readily than men obey their rulers. For the herds go wherever their keeper directs them and graze in those places to which he leads them and keep out of those from which he excludes them. They allow their keeper, moreover, to enjoy, just as he will, the profits that accrue from them. And then again, we have never known of a herd conspiring against its keeper, either to refuse obedience to him or to deny him the privilege of enjoying the profits that accrue. At the same time, herds are more intractable to strangers than to their rulers and those who derive profit from them. Men, however, conspire against none sooner than against those whom they see attempting to rule over them.

    Extractions: Xenophon One day Socrates met a young man in Athens. "Where can bread be found?" asked the philosopher. The young man responded with a nice voice. "And where can wine be found?" asked Socrates. With the same pleasant manner the young man told Socrates where to get wine. "And where can the good and the noble be found?" asked then Socrates. The young man was puzzled and unable to answer. "Follow me and learn," said the philosopher. The young man who was Xenophon obeyed and from that time forward was the pupil and friend of Socrates. Afterwards, Xenophon retired to Athens, but finding the city to be unfriendly, rejoined his comrades and helped the Spartans against Persia. When Athens allied with Persia against Sparta, he was banished, and spent the next few decades at Scillus, where his Anabasis was composed. Later the banishment was revoked, and Xenophon spent his last years at Athens. His date of death is uncertain; it is known only that he survived his patron Agesilaus, for whom he wrote an encomium.

BC), whose name means "strange sound" or "guest voice", was an Athenian knight, an associate of Socrates , and is known for his writings on Hellenic culture While a young man, Xenophon participated in the expedition led by Cyrus the Younger against his older brother, the emperor Artaxerxes II of Persia . Cyrus hoped to depose his brother and gain the throne, but did not tell his mercenaries of this true goal of the expedition. A battle took place at Cunaxa , where the Greeks were victorious but Cyrus was killed, and shortly thereafter their general, Clearchus of Sparta , was captured and executed. The mercenaries found themselves deep in hostile territory, far from the sea, and without leadership. They elected new leaders, including Xenophon himself, who led them north through Armenia and back to Greece. Xenophon's record of this expedition and the journey home was titled Anabasis ("Expedition" or "The March Up Country" which carries in Greek the same connotation it does in English).

    Extractions: d. , shortly before 350, Attica Greek historian, author of the Anabasis. Its prose was highly regarded by literary critics in antiquity and had strong influence on Latin literature. Born of a well-to-do Athenian family, Xenophon grew up during the great war between Athens and Sparta (431-404 BC) and served in the elite force of Athenian cavalry. He and his well-to-do contemporaries sat at the feet of Socrates, were critical of the extreme form of democracy under which they lived, and sympathized with the right-wing revolutionaries who seized power for short spells in 411 BC and 404 BC. When democracy was reestablished in Athens in 401, Xenophon chose to go abroad. His dislike of extreme democracy was deepened by the condemnation and execution of Socrates in 399; a few years later he was himself exiled as a traitor. Xenophon was now deeply involved with Sparta and Agesilaus, whom he continued to serve. He was rewarded first with a residence at Sparta and then with an estate at Scillus near Olympia. Happily married and father of two sons, he had ample means and leisure to hunt, entertain the local gentry, and build a chapel to the hunter goddess, Artemis. But the star of Sparta was setting. In 371 Xenophon found a new refuge at Corinth. When Athens and Sparta became allies against Thebes, his banishment was revoked, and he went home c. 365. He resumed his old life in Athenian society, remained somewhat critical of democracy, and saw his sons join his old cavalry regiment. Xenophon wrote what was probably his last work, Ways and Means, in 355 BC, advocating a policy of peace for Athens and the Greek states. He was reputedly very handsome, and two copies of an original head, sculptured in marble, have survived.

    Extractions: In his Memorabilia , or Recollections of Socrates , Xenophon reports what scholars generally agree is his own invented conversation between the complacent democratic politician Pericles and his youthful ward Alcibiades. Xenophon shows, through Alcibiades’ words, how the democratic case against oligarchy and tyranny is an equally good case against democracy itself: Thus the story is told of Alcibiades – how before the age of twenty he engaged his own guardian, Pericles, at that time prime minister of the state, in a discussion concerning laws.
