Oxonii: E Theatro Sheldoniano, 1726. Hardcover. Very Good. Hardcover. Xenophon (c. 430 - c. 355 BCE) was a Greek philosopher, historian, and commander of the Greek army. He was also a student and friend of Socrates, and is considered to be one of the best writers of antiquity. This is his partially fictious biography of Cyrus the Great. The Greek and the later Latin translation have been revised and corrected by Thomas Hutchinson based on reviewing the Codex manscript at Oxford. This volume is printed in Greek and Latin. It includes a full page engraved frontispiece and one folding map showing Persia and the Middle East. Rebacked with modern leather (truncated)
