描述
An examination of Herodotus' Histories in the context of the intellectual developments of his time.
Booknews Thomas's fascinating study analyzes the of Herodotos to reveal the historian's awareness of current philosophical trends, the influence on him of his polyglot homeland (he was from Halicarnassus), his rhetorical techniques, and other aspects of his cultural milieu. These contextual aspects are explored as Thomas (ancient history, Royal Holloway, U. of London, UK) discusses the major themes of the , including medicine, wonders, the natural world, and foreign lands and people.

"Herodotus called his work an enquiry and wrote before 'history' was a separate discipline. Coming from Halicarnassus, at the crossroads between the Persian and Athenian spheres of influence, he combined the culture of Athens with that of the more pluralistic and less ethnocentric cities of east Greece. Alive to the implications of this cultural background for Herodotus' thought, this study explores the much neglected contemporary connotations and context of the Histories, looking at them as part of the intellectual climate of his time. Concentrating on Herodotus' ethnography, geography and accounts of natural wonders, and examining his methods of argument and persuasion, it sees the Histories, which appear virtually without antecedents, as a product of the late fifth-century world of the natural scientists, medical writers and sophists - a world of controversy and debate."--Jacket
备用描述
This book examines the Histories of Herodotus within the context of the intellectual climate of the mid to late fifth century BC. Herodotus is read widely for his accounts of archaic Greek history but his descriptions of Egypt, Scythia and Libya are equally fascinating. Rosalind Thomas concentrates on the latter, along with Herodotus' accounts of the wonders of nature and his methods of convincing his audiences, seeing these as part of the world of scientific inquiry and controversy more familiar from the natural philosophers and medical works of the time.
