A leading authority in the field, Phillip Harding presents the
very first English translations of the six Athenian writers known
as the Atthidographers.
In his vivid and detailed history, Harding examines the
remaining fragments of these historical writers' work ? in
chronological order ? and how these writings, dating from the fifth
and fourth century BC, reveal an invaluable wealth of information
about early Athenian history, legend, religion, customs and
anecdotes.
Harding also goes on to study how these histories of Athens and
its people were the source for later surviving historians such as
Plutarch and Diodorus.
With the aid of linking text and detailed annotation, anyone
with an interest in Athenian history, classical Greece need look no
further.
