This volume brings together scholars from various areas (history,
philology, linguistics, history of political ideas) and attempts a
fresh survey of current trends in the analysis of Thucydides'
historical narrative. Individual contributions range from a general
outlook of Thucydides' historical and historiographical concepts to
detailed analysis of narrative strategies, linguistic features and
stylistic devices. Special attention is given to questions such as
the representation of character, the role of individuals, the
interaction between leaders and masses in Athenian democracy, the
construction of speeches in Thucydides' work, etc. The analysis of
language, style and narrative properties is related to the
construction of meaning according to current standards of textual
analysis and interpreation.
