Xenophon's only true Socratic discourse, the Oeconomicus is a dialogue between Socrates and a gentleman-farmer on the art of household management and the art of farming as practiced on the gentleman's estate. It is generally acknowledged to be the oldest surviving work devoted to "economics," and it constitutes the classic statement of "economic" thought in ancient Greece. The dialogue examines the roles of husband and wife in the household and the division of labor between them, and considers the duties of the farm steward and the housekeeper. It discusses the goals of efficient management and the means for attaining these goals. Professor Strauss interprets every chapter of the discourse, pointing out the relationship of each part to the others. It also compares Xenophon's statements in this work to those in his other works and to the statements of other Greek writers. Strauss shows that Xenophon, who knew and admired Socrates, chose a subject particularly suitable for a Socratic discourse. The Oeconomicus, he maintains, is best understood as a profoundly ironic reply by Xenophon to Aristotphanes' treatment of Socrates in The Clouds. This work, the second of Strauss's trilogy on the writings of Xenophon, has a preface from Allan Bloom and a new foreword by Christopher Bruell, which places the work in perspective and admirably introduces it.

Excerpt from The Oeconomicus of Xenophon: With Introduction, Summaries, Critical and Explanatory Notes, and Full Indexes I cannot conclude without expressing my grateful sense of the pains bestowed on the printing of the volume by Messrs R. R. Clark, and especially of the help I have received from the Reader, whose accuracy and exact scholarship were of such service to me in carrying my edition of Plutarch's Life of Pericles through the press.

The Oeconomicus is unique in Greek literature in combining a discussion of the proper management of an oikos ('family', 'household', or 'estate') and didactic material on agriculture within a Socratic dialogue. It is one of the richest primary sources for the social, economic, and intellectual history of classical Athens. It contains valuable information and raises questions of perennial interest on marriage; the innate moral, physical, and mental qualities of men and women; the functioning of domestic and public economies; rural and urban life; Greek slavery; popular religion; the role of education, and many other topics. Despite the current widespread interest in the subjects discussed in the Oeconomicus, this text has been largely ignored, and only a few European dissertations - none in English - have been written on it. In this book Professor Pomeroy provides a new translation to complement the Oxford Classical Text, as well as a comprehensive Introduction and Commentary, making the book readily accessible to those both with and without a knowledge of Greek. She covers a wide range of subjects, including agriculture, philosophy, and social, military, intellectual, and economic history. It should be of special interest to scholars and students of classics, history, and philosophy, as well as women's studies.
