Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Sextus Julius Frontinus's Strategemata is a compact treasury of military cunning, gathering examples of deception, improvisation, discipline, and psychological insight from Greek, Roman, and foreign commanders. Arranged thematically… rather than narratively, it reads as a practical supplement to a lost technical treatise on warfare, transforming historical anecdote into usable doctrine. Its Latin is terse, functional, and exemplary, standing within the Roman tradition of moralized historical exempla while serving the pragmatic needs of commanders in the imperial age. Frontinus was unusually qualified to compile such a work. A distinguished senator of the late first century CE, he served as consul, governor of Britain, military commander, and later curator aquarum, a post that produced his celebrated treatise on Rome's aqueducts. His administrative precision and battlefield experience converge in Strategemata: the book reflects a mind trained to classify problems, preserve precedents, and convert experience into disciplined public knowledge. This volume is recommended to readers interested in Roman military practice, classical historiography, and the intellectual habits of imperial governance. Concise yet revealing, it offers not grand theory but practical intelligence: a handbook of precedent, prudence, and command. 120 pp. Englisch.

Binding tight and intact. Please see photos. Sextus Julius Frontinus (c. 40 103 AD) was a Roman civil engineer, author, soldier and senator of the late 1st century AD. He was a successful general under Domitian, commanding forces in Roman Britain, and on the Rhine and Danube frontiers. A novus homo, he was consul three times. Frontinus ably discharged several important administrative duties for Nerva and Trajan. However, he is best known to the post-Classical world as an author of technical treatises, especially De aquaeductu, dealing with the aqueducts of Rome. Strategemata, or Stratagems, is a collection of examples of military stratagems from Greek and Roman history, ostensibly for the use of generals. Frontinus is assumed to have written Strategemata towards the end of the first century AD, possibly in connection with a lost work on military theory. Frontinus is best known as a writer on water engineering, but he had a distinguished military career. In Stratagems he draws partly on his own experience as a general in Germany under Domitian. However, most of the (more than five hundred) examples which he gives are less recent, for example he mentions the Siege of Uxellodunum in 51 BC. Similarities to versions in other Roman authors like Valerius Maximus and Livy suggest that he drew mainly on literary sources. The work consists of four books, of which three are undoubtedly by Frontinus. The authenticity of the fourth book has been challenged. In the seventeenth century six or seven editions appeared, including that of Samuel Tennulius (Leyden and Amsterdam, 1675), with notes and emendations.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In his seminal work 'Strategemata,' Sextus Julius Frontinus offers an insightful exploration of military stratagems that have shaped the art of warfare. Through a compilation of historical anecdotes and practical advice drawn from notabl…e campaigns, Frontinus presents a comprehensive guide that resonates with both the intricacies of tactical maneuvers and the psychological dimensions of leadership. Written during the late 1st century CE, the text showcases a classical prose style, characterized by clarity and conciseness, allowing for an accessible yet intellectually stimulating read. The incorporation of diverse examples from Greek and Roman military history situates this work within the broader context of Roman strategic thought, emphasizing its lasting relevance in military philosophy. Frontinus himself was a prominent Roman general and an experienced governor of Britain, which significantly influenced his understanding of military operations and strategy. His practical experiences on the battlefield and administrative challenges provided him with a unique perspective on the relationship between strategy, tactics, and leadership. This firsthand knowledge imbues his writings with authenticity and authority, allowing him to synthesize theoretical concepts with real-world applications. 'Strategemata' is an indispensable read for scholars, military professionals, and history enthusiasts alike. Its timeless principles transcend the ancient context, offering insights that remain pertinent in contemporary military and leadership studies. Engaging with Frontinus's work equips readers with a nuanced appreciation for the complexities of strategy, positioning them to think critically about decision-making in various competitive environments.
