Book Synopsis Herodotus: Histories Book IX by : Herodotus
Download or read book Herodotus: Histories Book IX written by Herodotus and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-12-05 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book IX of Herodotus' Histories provides the conclusion and climax to his work, as the victories at Plataea and Mycale complete the improbable Greek victory over Persia. The major themes of the work are all here echoed, modified, and revisited, and Book IX is thus essential for exploring its meaning (or range of possible meanings). This commentary, the first in English devoted solely to Book IX in over a century, treats Herodotus' work as both an historical narrative and a work of literature, incorporating the results of recent scholarly work in the fields of Greek history and historiography. It contains a Greek text together with detailed philological, literary, and historical notes designed to assist the intermediate and advanced Greek student. It will also be of use to graduate students and scholars.

Book excerpt: The Histories of Herodotus is now considered the founding work of history in Western literature.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Herodotus, Vol. 1 of 4 Books into which the history is divided. In the running comment upon the text which the foot-notes furnish, while it is hoped that no really important illustration of the narrative of Herodotus from classical writers of authority has been omitted, the main endeavour has been to confine such comment within reasonable compass, and to avoid the mistake into which Lar cher and Bahr have fallen, of overlaying the text with the com mentary. If the principle here indicated is anywhere infringed, it will be found that the infringement arises from a press of modern matter not previously brought to bear upon the author, and of a character which seemed to require juxtaposition with his statements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Herodotus, Vol. 1: Translated From the Ancient Greek Scholarship is not requisite to an appreciation of the actions of the Greeks and other people of antiquity as told by the Greek historians; for in all Of us lies the deep curiosity that seeks information, and the love Of the beautiful and heroic that lifts us to a broader plane of thought and endeavour. While much Of value has been discovered and written by modern scholars, history, as recorded by the men who actually lived it, must take first place. These records may not be as accurate in matters of fact as more recent writings, but they certainly are truer his tory; for they tell us more truly what manner Of people they were among whom the authors lived. The earliest forms of this history, of course, are found in the epics of Homer. But of historians in the more modern sense of the word, the writings Of three alone have descended to us through the lapse Of the ages. These are Herodotus, Thucydides and Xenophon; and it is due to their wisdom and energy that humanity has gained its greatest inspiration toward that progress which spells perfection in the end.
