This is the first comprehensive commentary on a section of
Xenophon's Anabasis in English for almost a century. It provides
up-to-date guidance on literary, historical and cultural aspects of
the Anabasis and will help undergraduate students to read Greek
better. It also incorporates recent advances in Xenophontic
scholarship and Greek linguistics, showcasing in particular
Xenophon's linguistic innovations and varied style. Advanced
students and professional scholars will also profit from the
sustained attention which this commentary devotes to Xenophon's
varied narrative strategies and to the reception of episodes from
Anabasis III in antiquity. The introduction and commentary show
that Xenophon is just as important (if not more so) to the
development of Greek historiography, and of Greek prose in general,
as Herodotus and Thucydides.
