Hesiod manages the labor of slaves and other dependent workers, and his interests are in opposition to those who provide labor and value to the production process. A second divide is discernible between the polis and its basilēes on the one side and on the other all those out in Ascra who are subject to both a market disadvantage and a judicial process that is being expanded by the urban basilēes. These simultaneous divisions contribute to the ambiguous picture of Hesiod as both large landowner/exploiter and peasant/exploited. Sympotic adaptations of Works and Days meant that ancient reception of the poem seems to have been restricted to the first picture only.

Tandy, a classicist, and Walter Neale, an economist and economic historian. Hesiod was an ancient Greek poet whose Works and Days discusses agricultural practices and society in general. Classicists and ancient historians have turned to Works and Days for its insights on Greek mythology and religion. The poem also sheds light on economic history and ancient agriculture, and is a good resource for social scientists interested in these areas. This translation emphasizes the activities and problems of a practicing agriculturist as well as the larger, changing political and economic institutions of the early archaic period.The authors provide a clear, accurate translation along with notes aimed at a broad audience. The introductory essay discusses the changing economic, political and trading world of the eighth and seventh centuries B.C.E., while the notes present the range and possible me...

Book is the window to open the new world. The world that you want is in the better stage and level. World will always guide you to even the prestige stage of the life. You know, this is some of how reading will give you the kindness. In this case, more books you read more knowledge you know, but it can mean also the bore is full.

Chapter 4 addresses the question of the deployment of troops in battle order, including detailed considerations about the position of light troops and cavalry, the particular formations, the distribution of positions of honour (with discussions of the relevance of the right wing and of the othismós) and the depth of the line. Chapter 5 discusses tactical manoeuvres. K. presents the chaotic circumstances of the battlefield and the various factors that hindered the control of the battle by the commander, concluding that controlling an amateur militia of Greek citizen-soldiers was an almost impossible task. He analyses under that light the development of selected or elite units for specific tasks and stresses that there was room for tactical actions during the battle, a reaction on the spot to the battle plan of the enemy. The final chapter addresses important topics such as the ‘collapse’ of the line, the factors that forced one side to turn back and flee and the pursuit, which K. presents not only as a common feature in hoplite battles, but also as the final goal of all the tactical planning developed in the previous stages (p. 194). In his opinion, the aftermath of the battle and its ‘last rites’ (the tropaion, the truce to recover the dead) intended to assert the verdict of the battle and to force the losing side to acknowledge the result, actions that must be read in cultural terms as a way to materialise the temporary superiority of a community over the other. The book is a very thorough and coherent analysis of a controversial question, carefully argued and heavily supported by literary evidence. K. commands both the modern literature and the main Classical sources on the topic, which allows him to present a vast amount of data integrated in detailed discussions and fresh reflections on every aspect of the Greek (approach to) battle. This monograph will certainly contribute to fuel the endless debate on the nature of Greek warfare.

The five scholars whose work is presented here, cunningly map ancient trading behavior and in so doing offer a framework on which to hang ancient Mediterranean buying, selling, and transporting of goods.
