The Invention of History: Herodotus and Thucydides
What is history and how should we approach ancient stories
written before its invention? What are the circumstances that
led Herodotus and Thucydides to develop the discipline of
history in the Western tradition? What made their accounts of
events different from previous ancient stories like those found
in the Iliad or the Odyssey?
Many stories in the Bible and other ancient works may look like
history to us, but they were composed before history existed as
a discipline. How should modern readers approach these stories
and what value, if any, can we find in non-historical
narratives?
