| CLG304 Greek Historians |
| We will read selections from Herodotus' Histories, with an emphasis on Books 1 and 9. We will discuss the text from a broad perspective, examining it both as a work of history and as a work of literature. Particular attention will be paid to the relationship of historical writing to other forms of literature (both poetic and "scientific") as well as to oral tradition and oral storytelling. At the same time, the Histories will be explored as a major source for Greek and Persian history. |
