Description: This is not only a book on Herodotus, but also a study of the origins of Greek historiography. Rather than investigate what made Herodotus a unique figure in the history of historiography, most of the essays collected here focus on attitudes which Herodotus shared with his contemporaries, historians and others, and on aspects which make him a typical product of his time. This emphasis confronted us with a further choice. Herodotus¡¯Histories are an account of past events and foreign lands and habits, and at the same time a critical enquiry, which may as such profitably be compared with the enquiries which were being carried out in Greece in the same period and in the most diferent fields by philosophers, scientists, and other ¡®intellectuals¡¯.
