Herodotus is not only known as the 'father of history', as Cicero called him, but also the father of ethnography; as well as charting the historical background to the Persian Wars, his curiosity also prompts frequent digression on the cultures of the peoples he introduces. While much of the information he gives has proved to be astonishingly accurate, he also entertains us with delightful tales of one-eyed men and gold-digging ants. This readable new translation is supplemented with expansive notes that provide readers the background that they need to appreciate the book in depth. * Introduction * Textual Note *Bibliography * Chronology * Appendices * Glossary * Maps * Explanatory Notes * Textual Notes * Index of Proper Names ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.

评分希罗多德的《历史》,较早曾有商务印书馆出版的王以铸译本,由于翻译年代比较早,其中的一些译名与我们当下通行的译名有异,难免使人读来有困惑感,加上缺乏相应历史背景的介绍和注解,故而在早年读过一遍,不得要领后,也提不起重新翻阅的兴趣。后来听说徐松岩在既有成果的基...
