Consequently, the epistemological and methodological standard of ancient historiography is typically held as inferior against the modern ideal. This book serves to address this apparent deficit. Its scope is three-fold. Firstly, it aims at encountering ancient modes of historical and historiographical thought within the province of their own horizon. Secondly, this book considers the possibility of a dialogue between ancient and modern philosophies of history concerning the influence of ancient historical thought on the development of modern philosophy of history and the utility of modern philosophy of history in the interpretation of ancient historiography. Thirdly, this book explores the continuities and discontinuities in historical method and thought from antiquity to modernity. Ultimately, this volume demonstrates the necessity of re-evaluating our assumptions about the relation of ancient and modern historical thought and lays the groundwork for a more fruitful dialogue in the future. 4aHistoryxPhilosophyxHistory. 4aHistoriographyxHistory.1 aTurner, Aaron. 0aTrends in classics - pathways of reception ;v3.  2lcccBK  00104070aPNLIBbPNLIBcGENd2021-06-17oD16.9 .R436 2020pPNLIB21060784r2021-06-17w2021-06-17yBK  c970d970
