One 10–12-page paper, double-spaced using Times or Times New Roman font. This paper will explore the contrasting decisions made by Spartan warriors at Thermopylae and Pylos, focusing on why Spartans chose to fight to the death in one battle and surrendered in the other. By examining the historical, cultural, and strategic contexts of each event, the paper will analyze how Spartan values—such as honor, discipline, and loyalty to the state—interacted with practical military and political considerations. The goal is to understand how these two moments reflect broader tensions within Spartan society and to consider what they reveal about the evolving nature of warfare and identity in Classical Greece.
Use all the sources attached and the citation style is (Author, page number) after using a source, very important. Include bibliography and for the ones saying choose two then only choose two but use the rest that do not say only choose two
Why did Spartan warriors choose to fight to the death at Thermopylae but surrender at Pylos? What do these differing decisions reveal about the strategic, cultural, and political pressures facing Sparta during each conflict?
