adam_text | In this dramatically revisionst account of Greek warfare, John Dayton
challenges the modern views that Greek warfare was more an aspect of the
Greek spirit of competition than a desire to inflict drastic harm on an enemy.
He examines all the ancient evidence bearing on the actual conduct of war and
combat among the Greeks themselves and in struggles of Greeks with
barbarians from the archaic period to the fourth century, and considers also the
evidence of Polybius and Roman warfare as it bears on the conduct
orbatile. A
thorough analysis of casualty statistics shows that Greek combatant states
suffered heavily from wafrare, and that there was no tournament-like
limitation on the harm that one party might inflict on another. He places the
modern treatments of Greek warfare in the context of the ideologies prevalent
at the time modern historians study the question, and he uses the evidence of
casualty figures suffered in modern conflicts to show that the damage Greek
armies inflicted on one another is comparable to the losses suffered in modern
total war. This is a study essential to any understanding of Greek history, of
which war was a constant feature.
