Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the writings of the ancient Greek historian Thucydides, particularly his history of the Peloponnesian War. It argues that Thucydides made use of the earlier work of the historian Antiochus of Syracuse in composing his own. The author examines the evidence for this claim, comparing Thucydides's account of Sicilian history with that of Antiochus. He also explores the broader historiographical context of Thucydides's work, arguing that he was influenced by the work of other historians such as Herodotus and Hellanicus of Lesbos. Ultimately, the book argues that Thucydides's history was a complex and sophisticated work that drew on a variety of sources, and that Antiochus of Syracuse was one of the most important of these sources.
