  The Art of Horsemanship and On...

  Name Xenophon, Morris Morgan

  Xenophon’s The Art of Horsemanship is a highly unusual text in the corpus of Classical Greek literature. It is a short survey on the various aspects of care for horses as seen by a highly experienced rider from the 5th century BCE. It is particularly notable because so many of its observations are relevant to the modern rider. Xenophon, friend of Socrates and professional soldier, is best known as the author Anabasis, the vivid account of a failed military expedition deep into Persia.  
   
  The Art of Horsemanship is very different in tone and content – a practical study from deep personal knowledge gained from working with horses, but none the less fascinating. 
   
   Xenophon considers what features and qualities to look for in a horse – among them broad chest, wide nostrils, prominent eye, supple knees, positive manner– and the sound of the hoof, which indicates good feet. (The ancient Greeks did not shoe their horses). There are even useful tips on approaching the horse to avoid conflict. He discusses training over different terrains and many other useful tips. The translator, Morris H. Morgan, provides extensive notes, not just on technical pointers such as mounting without stirrups or saddle, but also by comparing contemporary sculptures where artists took licence over reality. Furthermore, Morgan provides a fascinating essay The Greek Riding-Horse, which is an extended commentary on Xenophon.  Also on this recording is Xenophon’s On The Cavalry General, a second treatise on horsemanship, but taking a different perspective.

  Caring - Caring The Thoughtful...

  Caring is more than just an emotion or an obligation; it is a conscious choice to show interest in the well-being of others. At its core, it is about fostering genuine connections and expressing a concern that transcends mere politeness. In a world that often feels disconnected and fast-paced, the act of caring can be a grounding force for both the giver and the receiver. It can enhance relationships, improve mental health, and create communities where individuals feel valued and understood. 
  One of the key elements of caring is empathy. Empathy involves being able to understand and share the feelings of another person. This allows individuals to connect on a deeper emotional level, recognizing the struggles and joys that others experience. Unlike sympathy, which often involves feeling pity for someone, empathy creates an equal emotional exchange. This emotional resonance is vital in showing genuine concern because it shows that you truly understand another person's experiences, rather than just offering surface-level support. 
  Another important aspect of caring is the idea of presence. To truly care about someone, one must be present—both physically and emotionally. This means putting aside distractions and fully engaging with the other person. The simple act of being there for someone, whether in moments of joy or sadness, communicates a powerful message of support. In this context, caring is not about grand gestures or dramatic acts; sometimes, it is the quiet moments of listening and offering a shoulder to lean on that make the biggest impact.

  Historic Triangle of Virginia...

  Jamestown is fondly remembered today for being the first permanent English settlement in the colonies, but it was not fondly remembered by those who lived and died there. The English quickly learned it would be difficult to establish a permanent settlement because of the poor weather, the swampy terrain, the hostile natives living nearby, and the general inexperience and ineptitude of the English settlers. During their first winter, everyone nearly starved, and more than half of the settlers died. By the end of the winter of 1609-1610, known as the “starving time”, barely 10% of the settlers were still alive. Nevertheless, Jamestown is remembered today because the settlement did survive through the hardships and go on to serve as the capital of the English colony for much of the 17th century. At the same time, one of the biggest reasons for its survival and fame today can be attributed to the local Native Americans, particularly Pocahontas, who has added both a human and romanticized, mythological element to Jamestown.  
  	Along with Jamestown and Yorktown, Colonial Williamsburg is known today as part of the Historic Triangle of Virginia, but all three of these old Virginian sites are known for vastly different reasons. While Yorktown was the scene of the final climactic battle of the American Revolution and Jamestown is remembered for being the first English settlement to survive in Virginia, Colonial Williamsburg is now best known as a bridge to the past.  
   Williamsburg got its start as a fortified site, which was vitally necessary for English settlers to heavily outnumbered by nearby Native Americans, many of which were at times hostile. Known originally as Middle Plantation, the site served as the capital of the colony for much of the 18th century, and it bore witness to seminal events in the history of Revolutionary era America.
