It's All Greek (and Latin) To MeThe Father of History or the Father of Lies? Herodotus' Histories with Han ParkerWas Herodotus the Father of History — or the Father of Lies?
Jimmy and Armand dive into the strange and spectacular world of Herodotus — a world filled with fox-sized, gold-digging ants, Pharaohs running brutal language experiments on babies and cultures who’d never dream of burning their dead… but would happily eat them.
They explore how Herodotus crafted his Histories, why later Greek historians threw serious shade at his methods, and how someone with more in common with a travel vlogger or Victorian explorer than a modern academic came to shape our understanding of history itself.

Crack The BookAre You a Lover or a Fighter?

Books of All TimeEpisode 30: Herodotus, The Histories, Part 2 - Children of HistoryIf Herodotus is the father of history, who are some of his children? This episode looks into it. Starting with a brief look at Herodotus's reputation down the ages, we examine the works of three ancient historians whose works can be said to derive from our pal Herodotus. They include:Thucydides of Athens (c. 460-404 BCE), who purged his History of the Peloponnesian War of all that messy stuff about myths and gossipProcopius of Caesarea (c. 500-565 CE), who worked as an official historian for the Byzantine Emperor Justinian I - all while writing The...2025-04-1756 min

The Pillars: Jerusalem, Athens, and the Western MindHerodotus: The Greek Invention of HistoryHerodotus is sometimes called the “father of history,” because he fundamentally changed the way humanity viewed its own story. As we read Herodotus, we’ll uncover answers to the following questions: Why did Herodotus decide to write history? What made it different than other stories that had been written until then? How does Herodotus’ including the Persian perspective reflect a particularly Greek way of thinking? What does it mean when we say that the Greek culture is concerned with culture? Recommended Reading: Herodotus. The Histories. Trans. Aubrey de Sélincourt. New York: Penguin Classics, 2003.2024-12-0340 min

The Rest Is HistoryHerodotus: The Birth of HistoryBorn on the Western edge of an empire that stretched all the way to India, Herodotus was a Greek historian of the 5th century BC. His major work The Histories, a long and detailed account of the Greco-Persian Wars and the cultures of the ancient world, is considered the founding work of History in Western literature.

(I write about another set here.)
The first selection in the first volume comes from the ancient Greek historian Herodotus. (You can read my thoughts here.)
Much sharper than my own thoughts, however, are the thoughts of political theorist and Bryn Mawr professor Joel Schlosser, writer of Herodotus in the Anthropocene (The University of Chicago Press, 2020). Schlosser explores exactly what I felt rea...2022-11-171h 00

His accounts of the ancient world, including a deep dive into all aspects of geography, biology, and culture (among many other topics), are fascinating, indispensable, and - at times - confoundingly implausible.
