Xenophon

English summary: This two-volume edition of Xenophon's Memorabilia offers a thoroughly researched critical edition of the Greek text, including variants and considerations of manuscript traditions, as well as a reworked and improved French translation. The many notes and considerable commentaries will accompany readers in understanding the place of Xenophon's description of Socrates, one that differs noticeably from the more familiar image presented by Plato. French description: Pres de dix ans apres la publication du premier volume, tres remarque par la critique aussi bien pour la qualite de son texte grec (on peut dire qu'il s'agissait de la premiere edition du texte des Memorables enfin critique, ou tous les manuscrits ont ete pris en compte et traites selon leur valeur) que pour l'abondance et la nouveaute de son commentaire, nous avons le plaisir de presenter, enfin, l'important volume en deux tomes qui marque l'achevement de cette edition. Les principes d'edition sont demeures inchanges: un texte grec sobrement etabli sur la base d'une connaissance directe de toute la tradition (pour la premiere fois dans l'histoire de l'edition de ce texte); une traduction tres soignee, beaucoup plus precise que les precedentes; un commentaire considerable, ou toute la litterature socratique est prise soigneusement en compte. On sait la these de L. A. Dorion: le Socrate de Xenophon est radicalement different de celui de Platon, et il ne sert de rien de tenter de diminuer les differences entre les deux representations pour tenter de produire un personnage composite, cense representer le personnage historique de Platon. Le commentaire des trois derniers livres se poursuit sur cette ligne et debusque impitoyablement toutes les solutions concordistes . Ce deuxieme et dernier volume est complete d'une bibliographie de tous les travaux recents ou est discute le temoignage de Socrate, et de tres abondants index rerum, nominum qui permettront de retrouver aisement les richesses de cette edition exceptionnelle. La collaboration avec M. Bandini se poursuivra par la realisation d'autres editions de textes de Xenophon.

About Horsemanship is a classic book on the art of horsemanship written by the ancient Greek philosopher and soldier, Xenophon. The book is a comprehensive guide to the proper care and training of horses, covering everything from selecting and buying a horse, to grooming, feeding, and exercising it. Xenophon emphasizes the importance of treating horses with kindness and respect, and advocates for a gentle and patient approach to training. He also provides practical advice on riding techniques and the use of various pieces of equipment, such as bits and saddles. About Horsemanship is a timeless work that remains relevant to modern equestrians, and is widely considered to be one of the most important texts on the subject of horsemanship ever written.
