What is Polyaenus: Stratagems of War, Books I-V (Polyaenus) about?
Polyaenus or Polyenus (pron.: /pliins/; see ae () vs. e; Greek: oo, Poluainos, "many proverbs") was a 2nd century Macedonian author, known best for his Stratagems in War (in Greek, ), which has been preserved. The Suda calls him a rhetorician. Polyaenus himself writes that he was accustomed to plead causes before the emperor. He dedicated Stratagems in War to Marcus Aurelius (161180) & Verus (161169), while they were engaged in the Parthian war (162165), about 163 CE, at which time he was too old to accompany them in their campaigns.
