The Lives of Miltiades, Cimon, Pausanias, and Aristides is a historical book written by Cornelius Nepos and published in 1872. The book is a collection of biographies of four prominent Greek leaders who lived during the 5th century BC. The first biography is of Miltiades, a general who led the Athenians to victory against the Persians at the Battle of Marathon. The second biography is of Cimon, a statesman and military leader who played a significant role in the Athenian victory against the Persians. The third biography is of Pausanias, a Spartan general who led the Greeks to victory against the Persians at the Battle of Plataea. The final biography is of Aristides, an Athenian statesman who was known for his honesty and fairness.Each biography provides a detailed account of the life, achievements, and character of the individual. Nepos draws on various sources, including historical accounts and personal anecdotes, to create a vivid portrait of each leader. The book also offers insights into the political and social context of ancient Greece, including the rivalry between Athens and Sparta, and the Greek struggle against Persian invasion.Overall, The Lives of Miltiades, Cimon, Pausanias, and Aristides is an engaging and informative read for anyone interested in ancient Greek history and the lives of its most prominent leaders.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
