Zustand: Good +. Early edition. 1213pp. Thick folio [36 cm] 3/4 leather with marbled paper over boards. Red text block edges. Spine label perished at edges. Title page vignette. Double columns. The inner columns are in Greek, the outer columns are in Latin. Decorative headpieces and initials. Appendix and three indices at the rear. Joints and spine ends skillfully restored. Tape was formerly present at the head and foot of spine and the surrounding areas of the front board. It has been professionally removed. New endbands. The hinges have been reinforced. A tear to the front flleaf has been repaired with Japanese tissue. There is a lengthy and very warm contemporary gift inscription (dated 1854) from a student to his former Greek and Latin professor on the front flyleaf. There are light tidemarks in the the bottom margins of the pages which very slightly bleed into the text. There are several pages which do have a bit more dampstaining. There are periodic instances of error in pagination, however the text runs consecutively. The text opens with a description of Xenophon's life. This edition was originally published in Frankfurt in 1595. Xenophon produced a large body of work. His works are an important because they reveal much about late Classical Greece. They were also very novel for the times, representing some of the earliest examples of the nonmedical treatise and autobiographical narrative ("Anabasis"). Furthermore, not only were many of his works inspired by his own personal experiences, giving them a personal touch and rendering them significant in that way as well, but they were also created with the ultimate goal of serving as moral instruction. Xenophon was exiled from Athens following a fight in Coronea in 394, in which Xenophon had supported Sparta against the Greek Coalition. The cause of his exile still remains a matter of dispute.

Buch
8 Bll., 678 S., 1 Bl. (VD 16, X 5. - Adams X 9. - Schweiger S. 335.) - Dritte Basler Ausgabe. Bedeutende Humanistenarbeit, der Text folgt Castalios Ausgabe, die lateinische Übersetzung von F. Philadelphus ist in Paralleldruck beigegeben. - Letzte Bll. mit kl. Wasserrand, Titel leicht angeschmutzt und mit altem Besitzeintrag, wenige alte Marginalien. Einband mit Gebrauchsspuren und Schäden, diese fachgerecht restauriert. Xenophons Werke, insbesondere die sokratischen Schriften und die Anabasis, waren unter anderem wegen ihrer nüchtern-klaren Sprache beliebt (er wurde unter anderem von Marcus Tullius Cicero gelesen und gelobt); er bleibt auch bis heute ein wichtiges Stilvorbild für das attische Griechisch. Da Xenophon teilweise Augenzeuge der berichteten Ereignisse war, ist er außerdem eine wichtige Quelle für die griechische Geschichte des 4. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. und hat in neuerer Zeit wieder das Interesse der Forschung erregt. Auch für die Philosophiegeschichte ist er von Bedeutung als kritische Ergänzung zur Darstellung des Sokrates in den Werken Platons. Seine Werke "Hipparchikos" und "De Re Equestri" werden heute vielfach als Grundlage der Hippologie gesehen. Die dort zu findenden Hinweise haben auch heute noch unverändert Gültigkeit. Xenophon machte sich auch Gedanken zur Ökonomie, die er vor allem in zwei Büchern festhielt: Oeconomicus (Gespräch über die Haushaltsführung) und De Vectigalibus (Mittel und Wege, dem Staat Geld zu verschaffen). In diesen beschäftigt er sich mit den Prinzipien guter Haushaltsführung einerseits und andererseits mit der Wirtschaft Athens. Tomá Sedlácek sieht diese Werke als die allerersten eigenständigen Lehrbücher für Mikro- und Makroökonomie. Darüber hinaus beschäftigte sich Xenophon mit subjektiver Wertlehre und Arbeitsteilung. (Third edition in Basle. Text by Castalio with Latin translation in parallel printing. With woodcut printer`s device on title and fig. woodcut initials.

Zeitgemäßer Holzdeckelband mit Schweinsleder auf dem Buchrücken, auf fünf Doppelbünden geheftet. Lateinisch-Griechische Ausgabe! - Xenophon (426-355 v. Chr.), aus Athen stammender Schriftsteller, Politiker und Feldherr, der aus dem Schülerkreis des Philosophen Sokrates hervorgegangen ist. Er nahm an der Seite Kyros des Jüngeren am Bürgerkrieg im Perserreich teil und führte nach der Niederlage und Tod des Kyros als gewählter "strategos" die griechischen Söldner in die Heimat zurück. Der Prozess und das Todesurteil gegen Sokrates veranlassten Xenophon, sich von Athen abzuwenden. Sein literarisches Werk gilt als wichtige Quelle der griechischen Geschichte und als kritische Ergänzung zur Darstellung des Sokrates in den Werken Platons. Seine Werke werden zudem wegen ihrer nüchtern-klaren Sprache geschätzt. Mit seinen Werken "Hipparchikós" und "Peri hipikés" gilt Xenophon als Gründer der Hippologie. Zeitgemäßer Holzdeckelband mit Schweinsleder auf dem Buchrücken, auf fünf Doppelbünden geheftet.
