Peloponneesolais-sota by Thucydides
"Peloponneesolais-sota" by Thucydides is a historical account written in the 5th century BC. It chronicles the devastating Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta, two mighty Greek powers locked in conflict. Written by an Athenian general who fought in the war, this unfinished work pioneered rigorous historical methodology through careful chronology and eyewitness testimony. Thucydides strips away divine intervention to reveal war's human causes, creating a stark, analytical record that strives for lasting
truth rather than immediate entertainment. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
