From Introduction: Much of the commentary is historical and biographical in its emphasis. In making detailed reference to other accounts , I have tried to fill important gaps in Nepos' brief and (in places) abrupt account, to compare the picture of Alcibiades in his account with that of other accounts and to trace sources which he may have used important passages have been quoted in full so that verbal similarities can be seen. A striking feature of Nepos' work is his tendency to describe many non-Roman situations in Roman terms. This reflects not only his vagueness about details (a common fault in his writing), but also perhaps a desire to make his Lives more relevant to his reading public and thus more readable. From antiquity to the present day biography and history have tended to be distinguished from each other, and biography has had the greater popular appeal. Readability is perhaps the most abiding quality of Nepos' Lives and Alcibiades may be the most readable of them all. On the whole Nepos portrays him consistently, although of course he also emphasises the inconsistency which was such an important part of his nature. He has told the story simply, yet dramatically; many of the complicated details about Alcibiades are omitted, yet particular incidents are highlighted, notably the return to Athens and the assassination. Above all, from Nepos' Life there emerges the impression that Alcibiades was unique and worth writing about.

A pesquisa analisa a construção do êthos do general cartaginês Aníbal nas obras de Cornélio Nepos e Tito Lívio, tendo em vista procedimentos retóricos. A primeira parte da pesquisa consiste no estudo do gênero historiográfico antigo, e sua relação com a Retórica, e ainda o estudo dos conceitos de êthos, écfrase e enárgeia. Analisamos então as estratégias discursivas de Tito Lívio para compor um caráter do inimigo adequado ao seu projeto historiográfico. Na segunda parte, discutimos os limites entre a bíos e história, e analisamos o êthos de Aníbal construído por Cornélio Nepos, o que permite discutir também as diferenças entre os gêneros, e outras questões gerais da obra do biógrafo. / The research analyzes the construction of Hannibal\'s êthos in the works of Cornelius Nepos and Livy, considering rhetorical strategies. The first part is a study of ancient historiographical genre, and its relation to Rhetoric, and also of the concepts of êthos, ékphrasis and enárgeia. Then, we reflect about the discursive strategies used by Livy to compose a character convenient to his historiographical project. In the second part, we discuss the boundaries between bíos and history and analyze the êthos of Hannibal built by Cornelius Nepos, what also allows us to discuss the differences between these genres and other general issues of Nepos\' lives.

Αντικείμενο της παρούσας εργασίας είναι να εξετάσει και να παρουσιάσει τις βιογραφικές μεθόδους προσέγγισης μίας εξέχουσας προσωπικότητας του 4ου αιώνα π.Χ., του Σπαρτιάτη βασιλιά και στρατιωτικού, Αγησιλάου του Β΄ (399-360/59 π.Χ.), έτσι όπως εκείνη σκιαγραφήθηκε μέσα από τα τρία ομώνυμα έργα του Ξενοφώντος του Αθηναίου (4ος αιώνας π.Χ.), του Κορνήλιου Νέπωτα (Cornelius Nepos, 1ος αιώνας π.Χ.) και του Πλουτάρχου (1ος-2ος αιώνας μ.Χ). / Purpose of this paper is to examine and present biographical methods in approaching a prominent personality of the 4th century BC, the Spartan king and military, Agesilaus the Second (399-360/59 BC), as that outlined through three homonym works of Xenophon of Athens (4th century BC), Cornelius Nepos (1st century BC) and Plutarch (1st-2nd century AD).
