Onesikritos und das Achaimenidenreich
Keywords:
Onesicritus, Alexander the Great, Achaemenid Persia, Cyrus II, CyropaediaAbstract
As a historiographer, Onesicritus is generally regarded as notorious for his fairytales. This paper reassesses his intellectual background, position within the structures of Alexander’s empire, and significance as a historiographer. His information on Persian history and Diogenes Laertius’ claim that he was strongly influenced by Xenophon’s Cyropaedia will be reexamined.
