Herodotus (c. 485 BC-425 BC) Herodotus of Halicarnassus (modern Bodrum in Turkey) was an ancient Greek historian who lived in the 5th century BC (485 BC - c. 420 BC). He wrote a history of the Persian invasion of Greece in the early fifth century B.C., known simply as The Histories of Herodotus . This work was recognized as a new form of literature soon after its publication. Before Herodotus, there had been chronicles and epics, and they too had preserved knowledge of the past. But Herodotus was the first not only to record the past but also to treat it as a philosophical problem, or research project, that could yield knowledge of human behavior. His invention earned him the title "The Father of History" and the word he used for his achievement, historie , which previously had meant simply "research", took on its modern connotation of "history". The Histories was often attacked in the ancient world for bias, inaccuracy, and plagiarism. Similar attacks have been made by a few modern scholars, who argue that Herodotus exaggerated the extent of his travels and fabricated sources. Respect for his accuracy has increased in the last half century, however, and he is now recognized not only as a pioneer in history but in ethnography and anthropology as well. Published between 430 and 424 B.C., the Histories As to Herodotus' life, we know that he was exiled from Halicarnassus after an unsuccessful putsch against the ruling dynasty in which he was involved, and he withdrew to the island of Samos. He seems never to have returned to Halicarnassus, though in his Histories he appears to be proud of his native city and its queen Artemisia. It must have been during his exile that he undertook the journeys that he describes in the

He also provides the best-known, but not the only, testimony as to the Greek interest in and veneration of the wisdom and antiquities of Egypt.

HERODOTUS (circa 484-425 A.D.) Biography The 'History' BIOGRAPHY: Greek historian , called the Father of History , was born at Halicarnassus in Asia Minor, then dependent upon the Persians , in or about the year 484 B.C. Herodotus was thus born a Persian subject, and such he continued until he was 30 or 35 years of age. At the lime of his birth Halicarnassus was under the rule of a queen Artemisia ) The year of her death is unknown; but she left her crown to her son Pisindelis (born about 498 B.C.), who was succeeded upon the throne by his son Lygdamis about the time that Herodotus grew to manhood. The family of Herodotus belonged to the upper rank of the citizens. His father was named Lyxes , and his mother Rhaeo , or Dryo . He had a brother Theodore , and an uncle or cousin Panyasis , the epic poet, a personage of so much importance that the tyrant Lygdamis, suspecting him of treasonable projects, put him to death. It is probable that Herodotus shared his relative's political opinions, and either was exiled from Halicarnassus or quitted it voluntarily at the time of his execution. Of the education of Herodotus no more can be said than that it was thoroughly Greek, and embraced no doubt the three subjects essential to a Greek liberal education -

Herodotus (c.484-425BC) The "Father of History" was born in Halicarnassus (today's Turkey). He was exiled from his city after having conspired against the Persian rule, and went to Samos. Herodotus was to make journeys to places like Asia Minor, Babylonia, Egypt and Greece during his lifetime, and he wrote about the different people and cultures he met. It was Herodotus who was the first person to speak about the idea of the free men of the west against the slaves of the east. At the age of about 37 he went to Athens, and won the admiration of many people, including Pericles and his good friend Sophocles. A few years later he settled in southern Italy, in the Greek colony Thurii. He was to spent the rest of his life working on his History, which describes the history and civilization of the ancient world. Herodotus tried to achieve objectivity and tried to separate what he held for true and what he thought was unprobable. He founded the grounds for historiography in trying to draw moral lessons from various events, showing for example how the gods punish the arrogant.

HERODOTUS Historian Herodotus is often called "The Father of History." He was among the first to approach the reporting of history in a logical and skeptical way; he tried to separate true events from myth and made a point of identifying and commenting on his sources. It didn't hurt that he was a colorful writer and commentator; his most famous work, The Histories, remains a widely-read account of the Persian invasion of ancient Greece. (It's the main source for details on the famous battles at Marathon and Thermopylae.) Ironically, the details of Herodotus' own life are unclear. He is believed to have been born at Halicarnassus, on the Aegean Sea in Asia Minor, and to have travelled widely, collecting and recording stories as he went.

77. Historical Causation In Herodotus Senior Honors Thesis, Tulane University Historical Causation in herodotusCarol Abernathy The ancients themselves criticized herodotus' methods. http://www.tulane.edu/~august/thescla.htm

Kenneth W. Harl, Ph.D. History/Classics 700 Senior Honors Thesis, Tulane University Historical Causation in Herodotus Carol Abernathy directed by Professor Dennis P. Kehoe, Department of Classics It is perhaps appropriate that Herodotus, intent as he was on recording the first, the biggest, and the best, and "other great and wondrous deeds," was accorded a superlative of his own, namely the father of history. Rambling and myopic in his obsession with detail, Herodotus seems to the incautious reader to do little to earn this accolade. In contrast to modern historians, Herodotus appears to include little analysis in his narrative and to draw few conclusions from his material. The ancients themselves criticized Herodotus' methods. Thucydides (I. 21)snidely dismissed his predecessor by refusing to include to mythodes , "mythical lore," in his history of the Peloponnesian War. Aristotle is well known for giving Herodotus the title "father of history," but in his Poetics it is clear Aristotle meant this honor as a dubious one. Aristotle relegates Herodotus to the company not of historians in the modern sense but rather of mere chroniclers. He intimates that the creative process, poiesis , is lacking in Herodotus and in history in general so that "poetry is something more philosophic and of graver import than history, since its statements are of the nature rather of universals, whereas those of history are singulars" ( Poetics 51a36). Aristotle set the academic approach to Herodotus for centuries. Scholars, even though fascinated by the wealth of information in the

79. On Herodotus' Histories herodotus The Historian. TOC. His earnest and constant desire to understand ‘theother’ is what we postmoderns can continue to learn from herodotus. TOC. http://www.shunya.net/Text/Herodotus/TheHistorian.htm

The Historian TOC Herodotus’ main sources were ‘what he has been told’ and ‘what he has seen’. This was probably the best he could do and it must have been hard to ascertain facts about a war that had acquired mythical dimensions in his own lifetime, few of whose participants were still alive for comment. He had few, if any, written documents to rely on – he queried priests, leading citizens, interpreters, eyewitnesses, ‘men with traditions’ – often fragmentary and unreliable. He also did land surveys and inspected battle sites. Unlike Thucydides, Herodotus focused primarily on the non-Greek world. We know little about his private life and in Histories he offers practically no biographical information. On his travels, he covered a large part of the Persian Empire: he went to Egypt, at least as far south as Aswan, and he also visited Libya, Syria, Babylonia, Susa in Elam, Lydia, and Phrygia. He journeyed up the Hellespont to Byzantium, went to Thrace and Macedonia, and traveled northward to beyond the Danube and to Scythia eastward along the northern shores of the Black Sea as far as the Don River and some way inland. These travels would have taken many years (some estimate twelve) and contributed to the almost encyclopedic scope of the Histories
