Sinopsis
One of the masterpieces of classical literature, the Histories describes how a small and quarrelsome band of Greek city states united to repel the might of the Persian empire. But while this epic struggle forms the core of his work, Herodotus' natural curiosity frequently gives rise to colourful digressions - a description of the natural wonders of Egypt; an account of European lake-dwellers; and far-fetched accounts of dog-headed men and gold-digging ants. With its kaleidoscopic blend of fact and legend, the Histories offers a compelling Greek view of the world of the fifth century BC.
Reseñas
El Oct 7 2011, RoozbehHatami dijo:
This is a classic in ancient history. Herodotus is commonly known as the father of history. This Penguin Classics has the best supplementary material I have seen among the various editions of this book by the same publisher or others. If bought from Penguin Classics, this edition is the only one to look for. Other than that, the recent Oxford World's Classics edition translated by Robin Waterfield is more complete in its supplementary material, yet needs more time to be explored.
