La Constitution des Lacedemoniens, plutot qu’un traite constitutionnel, est un eloge des institutions et des moeurs spartiates, dont Lycurgue, le legislateur legendaire, est l’inspirateur. Xenophon y manifeste une vive admiration pour la cite qui l’accueillit, et decrit quelques-unes des pratiques qui font de Sparte un modele politique pour qui aime l’oligarchie.

Ne pres d’Athenes, Xenophon (426-354 av. J.-C.) est issu d’une famille aristocratique tres aisee. Il prend part a la defense d’Athenes dans la guerre du Peloponnese. En 401, il rejoint les Spartiates combattant en Asie Mineure aux cotes de Cyrus, qui cherchait alors a renverser son frere. Apres l’echec de la campagne des Dix-Mille, ou Cyrus perdit la vie, il est elu general, et, traversant l’Asie, conduit les Grecs jusqu’a Trebizonte, exploit qu’il raconte dans l’Anabase. Surnomme ” l’abeille grecque “, Xenophon nous a laisse une uvre aussi variee qu’abondante. De l’enseignement de Socrate dont il fut le disciple, il a tire des ouvrages dits socratiques, les Memorables, Le Banquet, l’Apologie et, d’une certaine maniere, l’Economique (dialogue socratique evoquant les problemes de gestion d’un domaine). Son travail d’historien se compose de l’Anabase et surtout des Helleniques ou il poursuit le recit de la guerre du Peloponnese la ou Thucydide avait interrompu son enquete. Outre des traites sur la cavalerie, la chasse et une histoire romancee de la vie de Cyrus, la Cyropedie, nous lui devons des ouvrages politiques, temoignant de son admiration pour Sparte, la cite rivale d’Athenes.
