Softcover. Condition: Very Good-. Minor ink notes and underlining to a couple of pages. Else VG.; A Norton Critical Edition; 464 pages; This Norton Critical Edition offers an introduction to Herodotus for students approaching the history of Western Civilization or classical Greece for the first time. It features a new translation and selection of Herodotusâs The Histories by Walter Blanco, supplemented by critical works chosen by Jennifer Roberts. Walter Blanco's translation manages both to remain true to the spirit and letter of the original Greek and to be readily understandable to American students. The selections from The Histories show Herodotus as ethnographer and as narrative historian, including his rich descriptions of Egyptian civilization and its contributions to Greek culture and his dramatic account of the Persian wars "Backgrounds and Commentaries" provide students with a context for understanding Herodotusâs place at the genesis of the historical narrative tradition. Great classical accounts by Aeschylus, Thucydides, Aristotle, and Plutarch serve as comparative pieces in early historical narrative while critical commentaries by modern scholarsâ"including Hume, Mill, Macaulay, Collingwood, Momigliano, Ferrill, and othersâ"engage students in the debate over Herodotusâs historical authority. A master Map, Chronology of Events, Glossary of names, places, and terms, and explanatory footnotes facilitate the studentâs understanding of this work. A Bibliography directs readers to resources for further study.
