| Summary | "Πελοποννησιακός Πόλεμος, Τόμος δεύτερος" by Thucydides is a historical account written in the 5th century BC. The work chronicles the events and political intricacies of the Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta, detailing military campaigns, alliances, and the perspectives of various city-states involved in the conflict. It stands as a foundational text in the study of history and political theory, offering insights into power dynamics, human behavior, and warfare. The beginning of this volume introduces a series of strategic military actions as the Peloponnesians, led by Archidamus of Sparta, invade Attica during the summer harvest season. The Athenians respond with cavalry raids and attempts to thwart the invaders. Simultaneously, the island of Lesbos, under Athenian control, begins to plan its defection from Athens, leading to fears of rebellion among Athenian leaders. The text sets the stage for a tense and multifaceted conflict, highlighting themes of loyalty, strategy, and the shifting allegiances of various Greek city-states.
