Factoid
Xenophon's tale of high adventure, Anabasis: The March Up Country (or sometimes called "The Persian Expedition") has a direct tie to modern times.
In addition to being required reading for most classical literature students, it inspired the Sol Yurik novel, The Warriors, which was later made into a cult classic movie, and more recently adapted into a video game by Rockstar.
This time instead of the Greeks vs the Spartans in Persia, The Warriors retells the story of a group of modern street gangs brawling through Coney Island.

The Devil Is In The Details – Ambrose Bierce
The Devils Dictionary
What had started as a newspaper serialization was first reproduced in book form in 1906 under the title Cynic’s Word Book. A further 500 words were published in 1911 in Volume 7 of The Collected Works of Ambrose Bierce, this time under the name of The Devil’s Dictionary. This was a name much preferred by Bierce and he claimed the earlier ‘more reverent’ title had been forced upon him by the religious scruples of his previous employer.
In 1967, an expanded version of The Devil’s Dictionary was published, following extensive research by Ernest J Hopkins. This updated version adds 851 definitions to the 1,000 which appeared in versions published in Bierce’s lifetime; in particular, it includes the words preceding “Abasement” which were originally defined in the Demon’s Dictionary.
