Omschrijving
Xenophon's The Economist, more commonly known as the Oeconomicus, is a Socratic dialogue devoted to the art of household management, estate stewardship, and the moral foundations of practical life. Through Socrates' conversations with Critobulus and the exemplary landowner Ischomachus, the work joins philosophy to agriculture, finance, marriage, and education. Its lucid Attic prose, orderly argument, and concrete imagery place it between classical ethical inquiry and early economic thought. Xenophon, an Athenian soldier, historian, and disciple of Socrates, wrote from a life shaped by political displacement, military command, and close observation of leadership. His experience managing men and resources, especially after the expedition described in the Anabasis, informs his interest in discipline, hierarchy, and useful knowledge. Unlike Plato's more metaphysical Socrates, Xenophon's teacher is practical, civic-minded, and attentive to virtue in everyday administration. This book is recommended to readers interested in classical philosophy, ancient economics, gender and household relations, or the origins of managerial thinking. Compact yet rich, The Economist reveals how the Greeks connected prosperity with character, order, and self-command.
