Xenophon
Greek historian. Born of a well-to-do Athenian family, Xenophon was critical of extreme democracy and for a time was exiled as a traitor. The great experience of his life was serving with the Greek mercenaries of the Persian prince Cyrus, on which he based his best-known work, the Anabasis. Its prose was highly regarded in antiquity and exerted a strong influence on Latin literature. His other works include On Horsemanship; On Hunting; Cyropaedia, a historical novel about Cyrus the Great; Oeconomicus, a treatise on estate management; and his completion of a work of Thucydides.
