Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
This volume constitutes the first large-scale collaborative
reflection on Xenophon's Anabasis, gathering experts on Greek
historiography and Xenophon. It is structured in three sections:
the first section provides a linear reading of the Anabasis through
chapters on select episodes (from Book 1 through Book 7), including
the opening, Cyrus' characterisation, the meeting of Socrates and
Xenophon, Xenophon's leadership, the marches through Armenia and
along the Black Sea coast and the service under Seuthes in Thrace.
The second section offers an in-depth exploration of hitherto
overlooked recurrent themes. Based on new approaches and scholarly
trends, it focuses on topics such as the concept of friendship, the
speeches of characters other than Xenophon, the suffering of the
human body, the role of rumour and misrepresentation, and the
depiction of emotions. The third section offers a more thorough
investigation of the manifold reception of this work (in Antiquity,
Byzantium, Renaissance, modern period, in cinema studies and
illustrations). Finally, in acknowledgement of the Anabasis' long
history as a pedagogical text, the volume contains an envoi on the
importance and benefits of teaching Xenophon and the Anabasis, more
specifically.

This book demystifies the models we use to simulate present and
future climates, allowing readers to better understand how to use
climate model results. In order to predict the future trajectory of
the Earth's climate, climate-system simulation models are
necessary. When and how do we trust climate model predictions? The
book offers a framework for answering this question. It provides
readers with a basic primer on climate and climate change, and
offers non-technical explanations for how climate models are
constructed, why they are uncertain, and what level of confidence
we should place in them. It presents current results and the key
uncertainties concerning them. Uncertainty is not a weakness but
understanding uncertainty is a strength and a key part of using any
model, including climate models. Case studies of how climate model
output has been used and how it might be used in the future are
provided. The ultimate goal of this book is to promote a better
understanding of the structure and uncertainties of climate models
among users, including scientists, engineers and policymakers.
This book is a study both of anachronism in antiquity and of
anachronism as a vehicle for understanding antiquity. It explores
the post-classical origins and changing meanings of the term
'anachronism' as well as the presence of anachronism in all its
forms in classical literature, criticism and material objects.
Contrary to the position taken by many modern philosophers of
history, this book argues that classical antiquity had a rich and
varied understanding of historical difference, which is reflected
in sophisticated notions of anachronism. This central hypothesis is
tested by an examination of attitudes to temporal errors in ancient
literary texts and chronological writings and by analysing notions
of anachronistic survival and multitemporality. Rather than seeing
a sense of anachronism as something that separates modernity from
antiquity, the book suggests that in both ancient writings and
their modern receptions chronological rupture can be used as a way
of creating a dialogue between past and present. With a selection
of case-studies and theoretical discussions presented in a manner
suitable for scholars and students both of classical antiquity and
of modern history, anthropology, and visual culture, the book's
ambition is to offer a new conceptual map of antiquity through the
notion of anachronism.
The Marines' march up to Baghdad; Sherman's trail of destruction in
Georgia; an army of Missouri volunteers trekking across the Great
Plains to Mexico - this wide-ranging and imaginative book tells for
the first time the story of how American armies from the sands of
Iraq to the halls of the Montezumas have followed figuratively in
the footsteps of the original "Anabasis", the famous Greek march
into the interior of Asia made by Xenophon and the Ten Thousand in
400 BC. Starting with the Iraq War, Tim Rood turns back to the
conquest of the American West and to the Civil War, showing how one
of the most famous episodes in classical antiquity was first
appropriated in the name of military expansion, and then used to
express conficting responses to the most controversial campaign of
the Civil War. Allusions to Xenophon in speeches, newspapers
reports, and military memoirs are throughout read against
Xenophon's own story. Taking in American culture from the fiction
of Thomas Wolfe to the drawings of Cy Twombly, "American Anabasis"
will be of interest to anyone who wants to discover why Xenophon's
classical story has proved so rich a symbol for the American
journey.
