Synopsis
The world's first great narrative history, Herodotus's "The Histories" vividly describes how the Greeks--few in number, poor, and disunited--managed to repulse a massive invasion by the powerful Persian army in the 5th century b.c. This amazing upset victory changed the course of western civilization, as the cities that led the resistance--Athens and Sparta--became the two major powers on the Greek mainland. The remarkable period that followed introduced revolutionary ideas about democracy, education, philosophy, drama, and--thanks to Herodotus--the writing of history. A wonderful storyteller, Herodotus filled the "Histories" with amusing anecdotes and dialogue, human details about the lives of important political figures, and a kaleidoscope of viewpoints from people of many lands. Magnificent in compass and enormously entertaining, the Histories is not only the leading source of original information for Greek history during the all-important period between 550 and 479 b.c., but also an artistic masterpiece that created a new genre of literature. Features maps of several noted battles, index of proper names, and a general index., The Histories , by Herodotus , is part of the Barnes & Noble Classics series, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras.
