Although it is often thought that Herodotus is a simple author, and
that his Histories do not contain many passages requiring textual
criticism, closer investigation reveals this view to be inaccurate.
Written to accompany and augment the new Oxford Classical Texts
edition of the Histories - which has been substantially revised by
Nigel Wilson from the original edition by Danish scholar C. Hude in
1906 - this volume attempts to take account of discussion of
numerous passages where there is reason to question whether the
text as transmitted in ancient or medieval manuscripts is exactly
what the author intended. A wide range of conjectures is
represented, and work by scholars whose contributions have been
neglected or insufficiently appreciated, in particular J. V.
Pingel, H. Richards, and J. E. Powell, is taken into account.
