Authority and Tradition in Ancient Historiography

Beschreibung

This acclaimed and influential book examines the ways in which Greek and Roman historians claimed their authority to narrate events, and how these claims were inextricably bound up with traditions developed by their predecessors. Now reissued with a substantial new Introduction, the book remains essential for all students of historiography.
