Taylor & Francis Herodotos the Historian Routledge Revivals His Problems Methods and Originality
Book SynopsisThe work of Herodotos of Halikarnassos, âthe father of historyâ, differs in many ways from that of modern historians, and it poses special problems to the student. Herodotosâ history of the Persian Wars, written in the second half of the fifth century BC, was both the first attempt at a comprehensive history and the first lengthy prose narrative in the Western cultural tradition. There was an almost total lack of written historical evidence in Greece at the time, and the audiences who paid to hear Herodotosâ lectures also expected historical dramatizations, and enjoyed descriptive material and anecdotes that today would be relegated to notes.In Herodotus the Historian, first published in 1985, K.H. Waters offers a comprehensive introduction to Herodotusâ background, aims, and methods. In a lively, informative style, this work offers a level-headed approach to an historian who has excited some extreme reactions and incited controversy among modern readers.Table of ContentsForeword; Abbreviations; ‘Life’ of Herodotus 1. Introduction 2. The Intellectual Background 3. The Education of a Historian 4. Selection of Subject-Matter 5. Structure of the History 6. The Herodotean Narrative 7. Sources of Information 8.

Taylor & Francis Displaced Things in Museums and Beyond Loss Liminality and Hopeful Encounters
Book SynopsisDisplaced Things in Museums and Beyond looks anew at the lives, effects and possibilities of things. Starting from the perspectives of things themselves, it outlines a particular, displacement approach to the museum, anthropology and material culture.The book explores the ways in which the objects are experienced in their present, displaced settings, and the implications and potentialities they carry. It offers insights into matters of difference and the hope that may be offered by transformative encounters between persons and things. Drawing on anthropological studies of ritual to conceptualise and examine displacement and its implications and possibilities, Dudley develops her arguments through exploration of displaced objects now in museums and dislocated or exiled from their prior geographical, historical, cultural, intellectual and personal contexts. The bookâs approach and conclusions are relevant far beyond the museum, showing that even in the most difficult of circumstances there is agency, distinction and dignity in the choices and impacts that are made, and that things and places as well as people have efficacy and potency in those choices. In Displaced Things, displacement emerges as fundamental to understanding the lives of things and their relationships with human beings, and the places, however defined, that they make and pass within. The book will be essential reading for academics and students engaged in the study of museums, heritage, anthropology, culture and history.Table of ContentsPrologue; Part I Departures; Chapter 1 Displaced things; Chapter 2 Separating things; Part II Liminal things; Chapter 3 Representational things; Chapter 4 Subjunctive things; Chapter 5 Hopeful things;
