The Cambridge Companion to Herodotus(Updated)
(Cambridge Companions to Literature)
by Carolyn Dewald, John Marincola, John Wiens
Paperback, 402 Pages, Published 2006 by Cambridge University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-521-53683-7, ISBN: 0-521-53683-9

"Herodotus' Histories is the first major surviving prose work from antiquity. Its range of interests is immense, covering the whole of the known world and much beyond, and it culminates in a detailed account of the Persian Wars of the early fifth century BC. Moreover, research has shown that Herodotus is a sophisticated and at times even ironic narrator, and a pioneer and serious practitioner of historical research at a time when the Gre ..."

Paperback, 840 Pages, Published 2008 by Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-953566-8, ISBN: 0-19-953566-3

""The father of history," as Cicero called him, and a writer possessed of remarkable narrative gifts, enormous scope, and considerable charm, Herodotus has always been beloved by readers well-versed in the classics. Compelled by his desire to "prevent the traces of human events from being erased by time," Herotodus recounts the incidents preceding and following the Persian Wars. He gives us much more than military history, though, ..."

The Histories(Updated)

Paperback, 796 Pages, Published 1998 by Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-282425-7, ISBN: 0-19-282425-2

"Herodotus is not only known as the `father of history', as Cicero called him, but also the father of ethnography; as well as charting the historical background to the Persian Wars, his curiosity also prompts frequent digression on the cultures of the peoples he introduces. While much of the information he gives has proved to be astonishingly accurate, he also entertains us with delightful tales of one-eyed men and gold-digging ants. Thi ..."

""The father of history," as Cicero called him, and a writer possessed of remarkable narrative gifts, enormous scope, and considerable charm, Herodotus has always been beloved by readers well-versed in the classics. Recently, the critical and popular acclaim for The English Patient, whose hero makes The Histories his constant companion, has attracted a new, and wider, audience. Compelled by his desire to "prevent the traces of huma ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-520-24127-5, ISBN: 0-520-24127-4

"As a sustained analysis of the connections between narrative structure and meaning in the History of the Peloponnesian War, Carolyn Dewald's study revolves around a curious aspect of Thucydides' work: the first ten years of the war's history are formed on principles quite different from those shaping the years that follow. Although aspects of this change in style have been recognized in previous scholarship, Dewald has rigorously analyz ..."
