The beagle is a small scent hound related to the larger foxhound. This breed was originally bred to hunt hare. The beagle can be found worldwide as a hunting dog. The beagle is extremely vigilant and can pinpoint its prey with pinpoint accuracy.
Xenophon (1897). Hunting (Cynegeticus).
The essay of Xenophon, "On Hunting With the Beagle", outlines many important steps in hunting with the dog. First, the hunter needs to train his hounds so that they can see the hare. The master should then feed his hounds close to the nets of the hare. Then, once the hare is captured, the hunter must reward the hounds with food.
Xenophon goes on to discuss the importance of hunting and how it can help the war effort. Hunting can provide a way to help fellow soldiers get out of trouble. Hunting helps men become more upright and sober. It is a better way to train soldiers than men who hunt virtue.
Xenophon's fascinating and thought-provoking presentation of hunting with the dog is captivating. He then discusses how different types and methods of hunting can be used to find the game. Some dogs pursue the target with an unspecific approach while others follow it with a more physical approach. Others chase the target with jealousy.
Before foxhunting became popular in the 19thcentury, beagles hunted hare. Both old and young hunters could use the beagle as a hunting companion. The beagle was also the best dog for hunting in undergrowth, and its scent-tracking ability made it an excellent hunting dog.
Xenophon (1897), on Xenogeticus
It is a matter for interpretation and controversy to what Xenophon's political philosophy was. However, there are certain works that show his dislike of democracy and tendency toward oligarchy. Cyropaedia is one such work. This is an essential work for anyone who wants to understand Xenophon’s political philosophy.
Xenophon was a philosopher, military leader, and historian. Born in Athens, he was appointed commander of the Greek mercenary armies in 401 BC. During this time, he established precedents for many logistical operations. He was also the first person to describe feints and flanking strategies in battle.
Xenophon’s writings largely reflect his life experiences. The Anabasis (and Cyropaedia) describe his adventures from 401 to 400 BCE. He was also associated to Socrates who was an influential teacher. The Hellenica on the other hand is a personal account of the politicalomilitary history of his era. His treatises on household management, military command, and other topics are based on personal experiences.
Xenophon wrote six additional works, in addition to his Xenogeticus. Cynegeticus, one of these works, deals with technical aspects in hunting. It contains instructions for hunting with dogs and nets as well as foot. Xenophon considers hunting to be a divinely ordained activity that promotes excellence. Another work, De re equestri, deals with horse ownership. Cavalry Commander, his last book, focuses on the improvement of Athenian cavalry regimens.
Xenophon's ethics system is closely linked to the gods. They are frequently mentioned in rituals and ethics by Xenophon. While Xenophon may have had a pragmatic attitude towards the gods, he insisted on the moral component in practical skills.
Xenophon was a child of a wealthy equestrian family and was born in 430 BC. He was a part of a revolutionary arm that sided against Cyrus the Younger. He later took part in the revolt against Artaxerxes 2 in 401 BC. Xenophon's role was pivotal in the Persian campaign against Artaxerxes II.
