Xenophon's Mirror of Princes: Reading the Reflections
Gray, Vivienne J. (Professor of Classics and Ancient History, The University of Auckland)
A study of images of leadership in Xenophon's narrative works. Vivienne J. Gray argues that Xenophon employs techniques such as the creation of patterned narratives, as well as allusions to Homer and Herodotus; she also takes issue with the school of thought that finds hidden subversion beneath Xenophon's surface praise of leaders.
