Landmark Thucydides: Comprehensive Guide to the Peloponnesian War

Description

Subtitled "A Comprehensive Guide to the Peloponnesian War," this massive volume contains the Greek author Thucydides' complete text of Peloponnesian War plus tons of helpful supplementary material. This newly revised edition of the Richard Crawley translation has maps, annotations, and an encyclopedic index. A helpful introduction at the beginning places the work in historical context, and the main text is glossed with annotations that explain and elaborate upon those difficult-to-understand historical references. Maps appear throughout the text as well, showing readers where specific battles and journeys occurred. The appendix contains a detailed and multi-page timeline, background information about the Athenian government and Spartan operations, diagrams of battle ships, and information about dialects, ethnic groups, and religious festivals in ancient Greece. A glossary and index are located in the back. 713 pgs, pb. ~ Lisa
