具体描述
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.

读后感
希罗多德的《历史》，较早曾有商务印书馆出版的王以铸译本，由于翻译年代比较早，其中的一些译名与我们当下通行的译名有异，难免使人读来有困惑感，加上缺乏相应历史背景的介绍和注解，故而在早年读过一遍，不得要领后，也提不起重新翻阅的兴趣。后来听说徐松岩在既有成果的基...
评分这是一部描述希波战争(公元前6-5世纪)背景和过程的历史书，下面是这本书的梗要笔记： 作者在书的开头就出了这些问题： 为什么要写这本书？ 为什么要打仗？ 谁先开始打的？ 这个”谁”是如何产生的？ 跟随希罗多德，我来到希波交界处的吕底亚。在这里，坎道列斯为...
评分希罗多德的游历大约是很广的，从书中的描述来看，我觉得他肯定去过埃及，利比亚，波斯，西徐亚，还有很多地方。他的见闻大约已经远远超过了那个时候人一生所能经历的全部。而他也许是我读过的最早的一位极具幽默感的作家了。修昔底德的书一般都是板着脸描述战斗的细节，或者长...

细读下来能发现一些翻译、分节、编年上的小问题，但是仍旧是进入希罗多德的世界最为“user-friendly”的一个版本了，能随手翻到地图是最大亮点。注释较简，可配合一种通行的commentary对读重点段落。个人强烈推荐。
