Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The work of Thucydides on the Peloponnesian War has not only decisively influenced our notion of history up until the present day; the complexity of his account also constitutes a particular challenge to philological and historical interpretations alike. Besides focussing on the political and military aspects, by virtue of its unpretentious, downright scientific perspective on historical events and their driving forces, this work set standards that have hardly been surpassed since. In the light of the remarkable sobriety with which Thucydides presents historical reality as a natural realm of existence beyond all theological, ethical or ideological embellishments, the history of thought and the hermeneutical implications behind this model of history are equally fascinating. This volume endeavours to explore the nature of the relation between historical reality and literary portrayal in Thucydides' historical work. New insights are provided from different perspectives on the question how the contemporary 5th-century and the present-day reader is directed by the author as a violent teacher. The work of Thucydides on the Peloponnesian War has not only decisively influenced our notion of history; the complexity of his account also constitutes a particular challenge to philological and historical interpretations alike. This volume explores the nature of the relation between historical reality and literary portrayal in Thucydides' work.

Gr.-8°, Ppbd. Condition: Wie neu. 189 S.; mit 2 Taf. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // Même si Thucydide n'abuse pas de cette forme narrative, comme notamment Hérodote, il nous faut relever la particularité de ses digressions. Il a innové en introduisant dans la thématique des digressions, quelques sujets qui n'avaient pas été «traités» par ses prédécesseurs. Pour la première fois dans l'historiographie antique, il a introduit des digressions politiques et militaires et celles-ci prennent parfois la forme de «dialogue» direct avec ses lecteurs. L'originalité des digressions de Thucydide n'est pas exclusivement due à leur fonction ou à leur contenu.L'assimilation et l'incorporation littéraire des digressions dans l'ensemble narratif prouvent à nouveau l'esprit novateur de Thucydide. C'est le premier historien de l'Antiquité qui s'attache à justifier l'existence de ses digressions et à les insérer aussi adroitement dans la narration principale. Nous sommes confrontés au problème de l'unité de l'oeuvre et à celui de l'influence ionienne qu'elle a subie, mais nous devons également envisager le souci scientifique de l'auteur, son esprit novateur et son talent littéraire.
