From the editor of the widely praised The Landmark Thucydides, a new Landmark Edition of The Histories by Herodotus, the greatest classical work of history ever written.

Herodotus was a Greek historian living in Ionia during the fifth century BCE. He traveled extensively through the lands of the Mediterranean and the Black Sea and collected stories, and then recounted his experiences with the varied people and cultures he encountered. Cicero called him “the father of history,” and his only work, The Histories, is considered the first true piece of historical writing in Western literature. With lucid prose that harks back to the time of oral tradition, Herodotus set a standard for narrative nonfiction that continues to this day.

In The Histories, Herodotus chronicles the rise of the Persian Empire and its dramatic war with the Greek city-states. Within that story he includes rich veins of anthropology, ethnography, geology, and geography, pioneering these fields of study, and explores such universal themes as the nature of freedom, the role of religion, the human costs of war, and the dangers of absolute power.

Ten years in the making, The Landmark Herodotus gives us a new, dazzling translation by Andrea L. Purvis that makes this remarkable work of literature more accessible than ever before. Illustrated, annotated, and filled with maps, this edition also includes an introduction by Rosalind Thomas and twenty-one appendices written by scholars at the top of their fields, covering such topics as Athenian government, Egypt, Scythia, Persian arms and tactics, the Spartan state, oracles, religion, tyranny, and women.

Like The Landmark Thucydides before it, The Landmark Herodotus is destined to be the most readable and comprehensively useful edition of The Histories available.

事物之间必有联系,是人类各种文明穷尽其自身一切可能预设的认识论前提,也是一种本体论承诺。而如何更容易更清晰地发现并厘清事物之间的联系,则决定了不同文明可能达到的高度与广度。也就是说,不同文明能够达到的层次,一方面依赖于其持续时间的长久,另一方面也仰仗于梳理...

在《历史》一书开头,希罗多德便开门见山地发表了那段传诸后世,并为后人不断释读的名言。 从这段话语中可以看出,希罗多德希望写就的这部“历史”记载的双方分别为希腊人和异邦人(或译作“蛮族”,主要指的是波斯人),所述内容是双方的丰功伟绩以及纷争原因。因此,...

要读英译就是这版不要犹豫!居然没标过。最近重新翻阅,发现果然忘记很多。多年以后居然有没把希腊语学下去的后悔?!

是历史亦是散文,各种耳熟能详的典故的出处:梭伦论死后的幸福,马拉松战役,斯巴达三百勇士(如果波私人的弓箭能遮天蔽日,那我们就能在影子下作战了),阿多尼斯的墓地,开满了有六十片花瓣的玫瑰,以及,为自由的战争
