(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
Herodotus is not only the father of the art and the science of historical writing but also one of the Western tradition's most compelling storytellers. In tales such as that of Gyges—who murders Candaules, the king of Lydia, and unsurps his throne and his marriage bed, thereby bringing on, generations later, war with the Persians—he laid bare the intricate human entanglements at the core of great historical events. In his love for the stranger, more marvelous facts of the world, he infused his magnificent history with a continuous awareness of the mythic and the wonderful. For more than a hundred generations, his supple, lucid prose has drawn readers into his panoramic vision of the war between the Greek city-states and the great empire to the east. And in the generosity of his spirit, in the instinctive empiricism that took him searching over much of the known world for information, in the care he took with sources and historical evidence, in his freedom from intolerance and prejudice, he virtually defined the rational, humane spirit that is the enduring legacy of Greek civilization.

读后感
希罗多德这本书曾遭到不够严谨，混入了许多不真实的奇闻怪谈的批评。但在我看来，这却恰恰是其一个优点，即事实丰富，颇具趣味。不像《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》虽然足够严肃，但读起来终归有些枯燥。 读古希腊的历史，不能孤立的来看它。而作为地中海文化圈的一个部分，古希...
评分由于年代的问题，本书中许多翻译并不与现行大部分翻译统一。 举例来说，本书中提到西拉库赛，现行翻译一般是叙拉古；神庙戴尔波伊，现行翻译一般是特尔斐；波斯国王克谢尔克谢斯，现行翻译一般是薛西斯等等。 需要读者多加注意。
评分这次世纪文景的徐松岩详注修订本基本可以秒杀之前商务、三联、中信等各个版本。首先封套和封面的设计与用纸都很上档次，终于可以配得上这部牛逼闪闪的西方史书之祖了。 内文用纸、印刷、字号、版式皆中规中矩。很吝啬滴加了点儿黑白图片，就跟给点铜版纸彩印能赔钱似的。 很重...
评分我时常有一种时光倒错感，这种感觉在阅读历史书籍的时候犹为强烈。比如，我正在阅读远古时期的一场战场，我会感觉它就发生在不久以前，而我童年的一些经历却好象是发生在很久以前的事了。如果我们把一次次阅读也当成一场场梦，如果我们的梦不会醒来，我们是无法分清它和现实之...
评分事物之间必有联系，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...
