Reviews
'... a seminal, meticulous, and impressively informative study ... a unique and unreservedly recommended addition to personal, professional, community, and college/university library Sparta/Greece ancient history collections and supplemental curriculum studies lists.' James A. Cox, Midwest Book Review, '... the study of the commemoration of war in the ancient world is an important subject, one that has taken off in recent years, as Sears makes clear in the introduction. Sears' well-written, almost conversational contribution to this area of study will hopefully be the springboard from which more scholars turn their attention to the study of Sparta's commemoration of war.' Owain Williams, Annalist Apprentice, 'At a time when the image of the Spartan has been used to justify white supremacy, military aggression, and controversial commemorative monuments, this book takes an in-depth look not only at Spartan society, military practice, and history, but also at the ways in which the Spartans viewed themselves. Through an examination of ancient literature, art, and archaeology, Matthew A. Sears calls into question many modern presumptions and assumptions about what we 'know' of the Spartans. This volume is certainly a must read for any historian studying the Spartans, but more importantly also for those attempting to use the Spartans as a model for contemporary practice.' C. Jacob Butera, University of North Carolina, Asheville

Synopsis
An engaging, authoritative exploration of the ways in which the ancient Spartans thought about and remembered their wars and their war dead. Matthew Sears shows that the Spartan commemoration informs contemporary acts of remembrance. Thinking about Sparta, he suggests, inspires us to reconsider our own relationship to conflict and memory., The tough Spartan soldier is one of the most enduring images from antiquity. Yet Spartans too fell in battle - so how did ancient Sparta memorialise its wars and war dead? From the poet Tyrtaeus inspiring soldiers with rousing verse in the seventh century BCE to inscriptions celebrating the 300's last stand at Thermopylae, and from Spartan imperialists posing as liberators during the Peloponnesian War to the modern reception of the Spartan as a brave warrior defending the "West", Sparta has had an outsized role in how warfare is framed and remembered. This image has also been distorted by the Spartans themselves and their later interpreters. While debates continue to rage about the appropriateness of monuments to supposed war heroes in our civic squares, this authoritative and engaging book suggests that how the Spartans commemorated their military past, and how this shaped their military future, has perhaps never been more pertinent.
