David Grene, one of the best known translators of the Greek classics, splendidly captures the peculiar quality of Herodotus, the father of history.
Here is the historian, investigating and judging what he has seen, heard, and read, and seeking out the true causes and consequences of the great deeds of the past. In his History, the war between the Greeks and Persians, the origins of their enmity, and all the more general features of the civilizations of the world of his day are seen as a unity and expressed as the vision of one man who as a child lived through the last of the great acts in this universal drama. His personality, formalized as witness, reader, and commentator, is integrated into the report which attends on all the events and through which they live for future times.
In Grene's remarkable translation and commentary, we see the historian as a storyteller, combining through his own narration the skeletal "historical" facts and the imaginative reality toward which his story reaches. Herodotus emerges in all his charm and complexity as a writer and the first historian in the Western tradition, perhaps unique in the way he has seen the interrelation of fact and fantasy.

評分印象最深:Solon認為一個人死亡之前,不能夠說這個人幸福(blessed),如果他/她擁有財産,圓滿傢庭,隻能說明這個人lucky。隻有death纔能確定人是否blessed,而在此之前,自負地認為自己blessed,可能會有緻命後果。

这次世纪文景的徐松岩详注修订本基本可以秒杀之前商务、三联、中信等各个版本。首先封套和封面的设计与用纸都很上档次,终于可以配得上这部牛逼闪闪的西方史书之祖了。 内文用纸、印刷、字号、版式皆中规中矩。很吝啬滴加了点儿黑白图片,就跟给点铜版纸彩印能赔钱似的。 很重...

評分 評分部历史书从婚前读到婚后--《希波战争史》 --欧洲史上第一部散文体“叙事史”。 可能受儿时《上下五千年》&《世界五千年》叙事方式启蒙太深,喜欢以时间发展顺序/年代记事。而这个又似乎从小学到高中所有中国教学课本一贯的编著方式。而西方史书似乎喜欢以国家为章节。从吕底...
評分根据希罗多德的描述,居鲁士(Cyrus)大帝之后的所有波斯国王都或多或少地违背了他们本族的“诺摩斯”(nomos,意义涵盖风俗、礼仪与律法)。冈比西斯(Cambyses)的癫狂众人皆知,因为他不仅不在乎波斯人的习俗,甚至还蔑视其他民族的习俗。考虑到希罗多德和品达一样,认为“...
