Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Selections From Herodotus' provides a curated entry into the monumental works of the man often called the Father of History. This volume offers a focused exploration of the 'Histories,' a foundational text of Western literature that chronicles the rise of the Persian Empire and the epic conf…licts of the Greco-Persian Wars. Beyond mere military history, Herodotus's work is celebrated for its rich ethnographic detail, geographical inquiries, and engaging storytelling that captures the customs and legends of the ancient Mediterranean world.Selected and edited with scholarly precision by Amy L. Barbour, this collection presents key passages that highlight the themes of fate, human ambition, and the cultural clashes between East and West. The text is supported by an introduction and notes that provide essential context for the complex political and social landscape of the 5th century BCE. By focusing on significant narratives and pivotal historical moments, this work makes the sprawling legacy of Herodotus accessible to students of the classics and history enthusiasts alike.
