Hardcover. Zustand: VG. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: VG. 1. Cloth, dj. Octavo. xii & 350 pp. Mild shelf wear and chipping to dust jacket. Previous owner's inscription to ffep. Penciled margin notes to text. Altogether a copy in Very Good condition. Ancient Greeks remembered their past before the rise of historiography and after…it poetry and oratory continued to serve commemorative functions. This book explores the field of literary memory in the fifth century BCE, juxtaposing the works of Herodotus and Thucydides with samples from epinician poetry, elegy, tragedy and oratory. Various socio-political contexts and narrative forms lent themselves to the expression of diverse attitudes towards the past. At the same time, a common gravitational centre can be observed which is distinct from modern ideas of history. As well as presenting a broad overview on memory in various genres, Professor Grethlein sheds new light on the rise of Greek historiography. He views Herodotus and Thucydides against the background of memory in poetry and oratory and thereby elucidates the tension between tradition and continuity in which the shaping of historiography as a genre took place.
