The document summarizes the key events of the Persian Wars between Greece and Persia in the 5th century BCE. It describes the initial build up to war after Athens helped the Lydians revolt against Persian rule. It then discusses the pivotal Battle of Marathon, where vastly outnumbered Athenian forces defeated the Persians through strategy. It also outlines the formation of the Greek League led by Athens and Sparta to fight Persia. The major battles of Thermopylae, Salamis, and Plataea are summarized, culminating in the Greek victory that established their superiority and allowed Athens to flourish culturally.

The playwright Aeschylus fought in the Greco-Persian Wars, and the battle scenes of the naval Battle of Salamis in his play, The Persians, may have been eyewitness accounts. They provide a more enthralling and possibly more accurate account of the battle than Herodotus. We will also consult Herodotus for the actions the wily Themistocles took to ensure a Greek victory in the Battle of Salamis, tricking the great King Xerxes to defeat, and the Ionian Greek woman General Artemisia. We also summarize the Greek defeat at the Pass of Thermopylae that preceded the Battle of Salamis.

Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History

You cannot understand the history of the long Peloponnesian Wars between Athens and Sparta with first studying Herodotus' Histories, and these events form the political background for the Trial and Execution of Socrates and all of the Platonic dialogues. In this video we discuss the unlikely victory of the Greeks over the mighty Persian Empire under both King Darius and the much larger forces gathered by his successor and son, King Xerxes. See the YouTube video: https://youtu.be/JjNcyLo54ko (After 12/31/21 at 2 PM) We discuss: • Discussing the Greek hoplite infantry forces, the Persian infantry forces, and the Greek Trireme ships in both the Greek and Persian Ionian navies. • The story of King Amyntas, Prince Alexander of Macedon, and how the hubris of the Persian envoys led to their demise. • Aristagoras and the Ionian Revolt against the Persians, and why it failed. • How the Persians demanded offerings of earth and water as a sign of submission. • The destruction of the first Persian fleet of King Darius by the winds blowing off Mount Athos. • The Persian defeat by the Athenian hoplites at the Battle of Marathon. • How the mostly Spartan band of 300, led by King Leonides, held off the Persian Army at the Pass of Thermopylae, until a traitor showed a mountain trail bypassing the pass. • How the Athenian and Greek triremes defeated the might Persian Navy at the Battle of Salamis, and the role Themistocles played in this victory. • The despairing messages of the Oracle at Delphi to the Athenians. • How the Persians burned the evacuated city of Athens and its temples. • How Mardonius promised to Xerxes his army would defeat the Greeks, Mardonius died in battle and the Persian army was massacred at the Battle of Platea.

Robin Waterfield Reflects on Xenophon’s Anabasis in Persia, and Other Greco-P...

Reflections on Morality, Philosophy, and History

What can we learn by reflecting on Robin Waterfield’s take on Xenophon’s Anabasis, the Persian Expedition? The Anabasis is Xenophon’s remarkable eyewitness account of the Greek mercenary army hired by Cyrus the Younger. Cyrus was challenging his brother Artaxerxes for the throne of Persia. Although the Ten Thousand Greek hoplites won the battle militarily, this win was wasted when a spear ran through their patron Cyrus, killing him in battle. Stranded behind enemy lines, and with many of their generals murdered by the treacherous Persians at a banquet, the Greek army of Ten Thousand elected Xenophon as the main general to lead them on their march for many miles and many months through enemy territory before they reached the Greek colonies on the shores of the Black Sea. The modern historian and translator Robin Waterfield has many interesting insights on this adventure story and the Greco-Persian conflicts that preceded it.

Thalatta! The sea! The sea!” • How this adventure would encourage Alexander the Great to conquer Persia several decades later.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf

kaushalkr1407

The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence. The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth. Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration. The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority. Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages. Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara

Balvir Singh

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup. The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
