(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
Herodotus is not only the father of the art and the science of historical writing but also one of the Western tradition's most compelling storytellers. In tales such as that of Gyges—who murders Candaules, the king of Lydia, and unsurps his throne and his marriage bed, thereby bringing on, generations later, war with the Persians—he laid bare the intricate human entanglements at the core of great historical events. In his love for the stranger, more marvelous facts of the world, he infused his magnificent history with a continuous awareness of the mythic and the wonderful. For more than a hundred generations, his supple, lucid prose has drawn readers into his panoramic vision of the war between the Greek city-states and the great empire to the east. And in the generosity of his spirit, in the instinctive empiricism that took him searching over much of the known world for information, in the care he took with sources and historical evidence, in his freedom from intolerance and prejudice, he virtually defined the rational, humane spirit that is the enduring legacy of Greek civilization.

读后感
由于年代的问题，本书中许多翻译并不与现行大部分翻译统一。 举例来说，本书中提到西拉库赛，现行翻译一般是叙拉古；神庙戴尔波伊，现行翻译一般是特尔斐；波斯国王克谢尔克谢斯，现行翻译一般是薛西斯等等。 需要读者多加注意。
评分在《历史》一书开头，希罗多德便开门见山地发表了那段传诸后世，并为后人不断释读的名言。 从这段话语中可以看出，希罗多德希望写就的这部“历史”记载的双方分别为希腊人和异邦人（或译作“蛮族”，主要指的是波斯人），所述内容是双方的丰功伟绩以及纷争原因。因此，...
评分直接上[链接]：包括Docx、插图和最终PDF（带书签），文中链接都更新并测试过有效，有bug请告知。 这本札记的质量有多高？我觉得没读过这本札记，都不好意思说自己读过希罗多德历史。 前阵子想起来这个札记正准备看几眼，发现LiptonTea老师的[原网站]很多链接都失效了，犹记前年...
评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“...
评分希罗多德的游历大约是很广的，从书中的描述来看，我觉得他肯定去过埃及，利比亚，波斯，西徐亚，还有很多地方。他的见闻大约已经远远超过了那个时候人一生所能经历的全部。而他也许是我读过的最早的一位极具幽默感的作家了。修昔底德的书一般都是板着脸描述战斗的细节，或者长...
