Description

Explore a fresh examination of Hellenistic historical writing in Rethinking Hellenistic Historiography. Published by Edinburgh University Press, this scholarly work investigates the lost narratives of Duris, Phylarchus, and Agatharchides. Using Polybius as a comparative lens, Lisa Irene Hau analyzes surviving fragments to reveal how these authors utilized unique themes and styles. Unlike the traditional methods used by Ephorus and Theopompus, these historians sought to engage readers through a sensory and emotional experience. This book provides a deep look into the characteristics of their historiographical methods and the concept of immersive history. It is an essential resource for students and researchers focused on ancient Greek history and the evolution of historical narrative.
