Synopsis
Excerpt from Polyaeni Strategicon Libri Octo
Polyaenum qui adhuc ediderunt, nec otiosis esse nec bonis codicibus uti licuit. Nam cum Casaubonus codicem pessimum nactus quasi gloriabundus recensendi laborem paucorum admo dum fuissedierum monuerit, Sam. Mursinna Maasvieii editionegn' innumerabilihus vitiis typographicis auxerit, correcta tantum hic illio versione latina, Adam. Koraîs denique suam népegyov xa! &11;865g aňrocxs'dzov esse professus sit, unus restat Pancratius Maasvicius ille, ipse quoque 'ah otio non melius instructus,' qui nisi nimium Casauhono se addixisset, ex codice Florentino et Can tabrigiensi l'ructus multo laetiores percepturus erat, quam re vera percepit. Post Maasvicium et vel ipsius aetate multi extiterunt, qui novam Polyaeni editionem pararent quidem, ab inceptis vero desisterent, lsaacus Vossius, Joh. G. Graevius, Lamb. Bosius, Sam. Battier, professor Basiliensis, Cbr. Frid. Matthaei, J. Conr. Orelli, G. Arm. Blume, ita ut plerique philologi nostro scriptore baud facile parabili nec satis emendato plane abstinere tutissimum ha heant: paucos 1) deprehendas, qui ut Cl. B. G. Niebuhr bos libros honae frugis plenos adhuc neglectos iacere aegre ferant. Hanc provinciam tamdiu vacuam relictam ut ego, seminarii regii Got tingensis ante hos septem annos sodalis, in me recipere auderem, factum est exhortatione et consilio Caroli Frid. Hermanm', prae ceptoris dilectissimi, cuius numquam ex animo meo discedet me moria. Mox cum V. Cl. Friderz'cum Haase professorem Vratis.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an overview of Polyaenus' Strategemata, a collection of anecdotes recording military strategies from the Graeco-Roman world. The author studies the historical context of the work and the literary strategies at play in its composition. Key themes that emerge include the reliability of Polyaenus' historical narratives and the ways in which his work intersects with other historiographies, particularly those of the Greek Polybius and the Roman Frontinus. The author also examines the strategies Polyaenus uses to organize his work, such as the division of strategies along thematic lines and the consistent use of brief and striking narratives. This book is an important scholarly resource for those interested in Greek and Roman historiography and military strategy. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
