Herodotus Speaks Again
I am delighted to report that Debra Hamel (scholar of Ancient Greek and writer) has some exciting news about a forthcoming publication on her blog: a new take on the original unreliable narrator: Herodotus.
It is to be called Reading Herodotus: A Guided Tour through the Wild Boars, Dancing Suitors, and Crazy Tyrants of The History and is published by Johns Hopkins Press. An excellent title, methinks, and I have a feeling this is going to be a fascinating and highly entertaining read too.
Congratulations, Debra!

Great. I have long been a Herodotus fan, back from my young Classicist days. He's the best and knows how to make history fun, and memorable! I look out for this one.
Excellent Herodotus Summary IMHO, Sue!
