This book examines the conceptual and temporal frames through which
modern Western historiography has linked itself to classical
antiquity. In doing so, it articulates a genealogical problematic
of what history is and a more strictly focused reappraisal of Greek
and Roman historical thought. Ancient ideas of history have played
a key role in modern debates about history writing, from Kant
through Hegel to Nietzsche and Heidegger, and from Friedrich
Creuzer through George Grote and Theodor Mommsen to Momigliano and
Moses Finley; yet scholarship has paid little attention to the
theoretical implications of the reception of these ideas. The
essays in this collection cover a wide range of relevant topics and
approaches and boast distinguished authors from across Europe in
the fields of classics, ancient and modern history and the theory
of historiography.
