generalship and leadership
#3
Quote:Well, the terms are, in military sense, actually the same. Civilian duty and military are intevened in roman sense. There are some minor differences, but nothing important.
There must have been some modern articles, but the best way to explore the meaning of these terms is to consult Polybius, Livy, Cornelius Nepos and other ancient sources.

Not sure I would agree that leadership and generalship are the same.

There is a distinct difference between the practitioners of these terms. A military man can show leadership and generalship. A politician/statesman can only show leadership.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!
