What is history and how should it be written? An important new anthology containing the seminal texts on the writing of history in the ancient world

The study of history was invented in the ancient world. Treading uncharted waters, writers such as Plutarch and Lucian grappled with big questions such as how history should be written, how it differs from poetry and oratory, and what its purpose really is. This book includes complete essays by Dionysius, Plutarch and Lucian, as well as shorter pieces by Pliny the Younger, Cicero and others, and will be an essential resource for anyone studying history and the ancient world.

For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
