Πῶς δεῖ Ἱστορίαν συγγράφειν

Πῶς δεῖ Ἱστορίαν συγγράφειν Lucian of Samosata
37 So give us now a student of this kind—not without ability to understand and express himself, keen-sighted, one who could handle affairs if they were turned over to him, a man with the mind of a soldier combined with that of a good citizen, and a knowledge of generalship; yes, and one who has at some time been in a camp and has seen soldiers exercising or drilling and knows of arms and engines; again, let him know what “in column,” what “in line” mean, how the companies of infantry, how the cavalry, are manoeuvred, the origin and meaning of “lead out” and “lead around”, in short not a stay-at-home or one who must rely on what people tell him.
