Abstract

In theHellenica, Xenophon prefaces his account of the liberation of Thebes from Spartan occupation by making the following gnomic observation: One could tell also of many other incidents, both Greek and barbarian, showing that the gods are not unmindful either of those who are impious or of those who commit unholy acts. Now, at any rate, I shall tell only of the events at hand.
