Download or read book Great Battles of the Classical Greek World written by Owen Rees and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a selection of eighteen land battles and sieges that span the Classical Greek period, from the Persian invasions to the eclipse of the traditional hoplite heavy infantry at the hands of the Macedonians. This of course is the golden age of the hoplite phalanx but Owen Rees is keen to cover all aspects of battle, including mercenary armies and the rise of light infantry, emphasising the variety and tactical developments across the period. Each battle is set in context with a brief background and then the battlefield and opposing forces are discussed before the narrative and analysis of the fighting is given and rounded off with consideration of the aftermath and strategic implications. Written in an accessible narrative tone, a key feature of the book is the authors choice of battles, which collectively challenge popularly held beliefs such as the invincibility of the Spartans. The text is well supported by dozens of tactical diagrams showing deployments and various phase of the battles.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Owen Rees: A Story of Welsh Life and Thought The original intention of the writer of the following pages was merely to give a few sketches of certain religious characters that had come under his observation during the last fifty years; inasmuch as he had been asked by the editor of Y Cymro, for some contributions of that nature. When he sat down to his task, however, he felt that it might more easily ensure the sketches being read, if he threw them into the form of a story; and as he progressed, the story developed into a slight plot. This will account for the form it now assumes. A thorough awakening has of recent years taken place amongst Welsh people, and they are now animated, not only by an earnest desire for education, and a fuller acquaintance with the English language as a means of education, but also an equally strong desire to cultivate their own language, both as a means and an end. This awakening - or to use the word which has now come into general use - this deffroad has also aroused in them a strong sense of their distinct nationality.

Download or read book Great Naval Battles of the Ancient Greek World written by Owen Rees and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2018-12-31 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naval warfare is the unsung hero of ancient Greek military history, often overshadowed by the more glorified land battles. Owen Rees looks to redress the balance, giving naval battles their due attention. This book presents a selection of thirteen naval battles that span a defining century in ancient Greek history, from the Ionian Revolt and Persian Invasion to the rise of external naval powers in the Mediterranean Sea, such as the Carthaginians.Each battle is set in context. The background, wider military campaigns, and the opposing forces are discussed, followed by a narrative and analysis of the fighting. Finally, the aftermath of the battles are dealt with, looking at the strategic implications of the outcome for both the victor and the defeated. The battle narratives are supported by maps and tactical diagrams, showing the deployment of the fleets and the wider geographical factors involved in battle. Written in an accessible tone, this book successfully shows that Greek naval warfare did not start and end at the battle of Salamis.

Download or read book Military Departures, Homecomings and Death in Classical Athens written by Owen Rees and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume sheds new light on the experience of ancient Greek warfare by identifying and examining three fundamental transitions undergone by the classical Athenian hoplite as a result of his military service: his departure to war, his homecoming from war having survived, and his homecoming from war having died. As a conscript, a man regularly called upon by his city-state to serve in the battle lines and perform his citizen duty, the most common military experience of the hoplite was one of transition – he was departing to or returning from war on a regular basis, especially during extended periods of conflict. Scholarship has focused primarily on the experience of the hoplite after his return, with a special emphasis on his susceptibility to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), but the moments of transition themselves have yet to be explored in detail. Taking each in turn, Owen Rees examines the transitions from two sides: from within the domestic environment as a member of an oikos, and from within the military environment as a member of the army. This analysis presents a new template for each and effectively maps the experience of the hoplite as he moves between his domestic and military duties. This allows us to reconstruct the effects of war more fully and to identify moments with the potential for a traumatic impact on the individual.
