Brossura. Condition: new. A cura di Asheri D.Segrate, 2025; br., pp. 552, cm 14,5x22.(Scrittori Greci e Latini). Con questo nuovo grande commento alle Storie di Erodoto, al quale hanno partecipato studiosi inglesi, israeliani e italiani, la Fondazione Lorenzo Valla vuole rendere omaggio al padre della storiografia europea: all'uomo che simboleggia la passione dell'Occidente per tutto ciò che non gli appartiene. Quante cose aveva contemplato Erodoto! Mentre leggiamo le Storie, lo vediamo ancora, animato da una curiosità insaziabile verso la totalità dell'esistenza, entrare nei templi e Ğosservare, conversare, porre domande, ascoltare, riflettere, paragonare, sollevare problemi, ragionare, talvolta concludereğ. Egli considera con attenzione e rispetto tutto ciò che fa l'uomo - tutte le nostre imprese gli sembrano degne di interesse o memorabili. E, insieme, sparge un'onnipresente ironia sugli orgogli, le vanità, le pretese, le follie, la hybris dell'uomo. ĞNulla è sicuro tra le cose umane.ğ ĞTutto nell'uomo è caso e circostanza.ğ Nella nostra vita si fondono l'iridescente imprevedibilità del caso, la ferrea necessità del destino, la strana partecipazione degli dèi - verso i quali egli prova un'ellenica mescolanza di venerazione e diffidenza. Prima o dopo di lui, nessuno ha mai saputo orchestrare così perfettamente una storia totale: i fatti politici, economici, militari, i costumi, le leggende, le favole, il folclore, la geografia, i monumenti si equilibrano in quest'opera che respira l'immensità e la libertà degli spazi aperti. La mente di Erodoto è complessa, molteplice, intrecciata, polimorfa. Quando egli insinua un tema dentro l'altro, e poi ancora un altro, e poi un altro ancora, quando procede a inserti e parentesi successive e scatole cinesi, come a mimare Ğl'infinito labirinto di concatenazioniğ nel quale consiste l'universo, - noi pensiamo ai lontanissimi intarsi, alle ramificazioni di Henry James. Ma poi, se egli vuole, riesce a sembrarci semplicissimo: candido come un barbaro o un bambino. Molto spesso fatichiamo a capire cosa pensi e quale sia il suo punto di vista. Forse è inutile chiedergli un giudizio. Forse dobbiamo soltanto abbandonarci al suo talento di narratore: al senso prodigioso che egli ha della fluidità del tempo - allo scorrere del mondo e del racconto come, diceva Cicerone, Ğun fiume quietoğ, che muove da un punto ignoto e si perde chissà dove, oltre ogni limite. Libro.

Hardback. Condition: New. Herodotus, one of the earliest and greatest of Western prose authors, set out in the late fifth century BC to describe the world as he knew it - its peoples and their achievements, together with the causes and course of the great wars that brought the Greek cities into conflict with the empires of the Near East. Each subsequent generation of historians has sought to use his text and to measure their knowledge of these cultures against his words.This commentary by leading scholars, originally published in Italian, has been fully revised by the original authors and has now been edited for English-speaking readers by Oswyn Murray and Alfonso Moreno. It is designed for use alongside the Oxford Classical Text of Herodotus, and will replace the century-old historical commentary of How and Wells (1912) as the most authoritative account of modern scholarship on Herodotus.Books I-IV cover the history and cultures of Lydia, Egypt, Persia, and the nomads of Scythia and North Africa, in their contacts with the Greeks from mythical times to the start of the fifth century BC; these themes, with many digressions, are woven into an account of the expansion of the Persian Empire and its relations with the Greeks.
