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.

评分我的梦靥
评分很好
评分希羅多德的《歷史》,記敘的是古希臘兩次重大戰爭中的前一次——希波戰爭,雖然希羅多德曾被《伯羅奔尼撒戰爭史》的作者修昔底德詬以文筆過於粗線條,但在當時希羅多德引用一些無法證實的傳說時已特意附注,給出類似“純屬個人觀點”的辯證分析,實屬難得,4顆星
希罗多德这本书曾遭到不够严谨,混入了许多不真实的奇闻怪谈的批评。但在我看来,这却恰恰是其一个优点,即事实丰富,颇具趣味。不像《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》虽然足够严肃,但读起来终归有些枯燥。 读古希腊的历史,不能孤立的来看它。而作为地中海文化圈的一个部分,古希...
评分我时常有一种时光倒错感,这种感觉在阅读历史书籍的时候犹为强烈。比如,我正在阅读远古时期的一场战场,我会感觉它就发生在不久以前,而我童年的一些经历却好象是发生在很久以前的事了。如果我们把一次次阅读也当成一场场梦,如果我们的梦不会醒来,我们是无法分清它和现实之...
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 评分读这本书使我想起来当年看金庸小说的情景,很多地方我几乎是一口气连读下去,大有手不释卷的感觉。 本来抱着一种学习的态度,没想却变成了一件消遣的乐事,实在大出意外。 希罗多德讲故事的天才绝对独步古今。几十万字的大块头著作,说穿了就是一个大故事,故事里面套故事,层...
