Making Time for the Past: Local History and the Polis

Autor Katherine Clarke
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 iul 2011
This book has two main and connected themes - the conception and articulation of time in the Greek world and the creation of history, especially in the context of the Greek city. Both how time is expressed and how the past is presented have often been seen as reflections of society. By looking at the construction of the past through the medium of local historiography, where we can view these issues in the relatively restricted world of individual city-states, we can gain a clearer insight into how different versions of the past and different constructions of time were offered to the community for approval. In this way, the citizens were able to negotiate time past and indeed their own history, and thereby to express their values and aspirations.

Recenzii

This is a groundbreaking book which sets the works of local history into their proper cultural, as well as historiographical, context.
an extremely thoughtful account, laden with sources and anecdotal evidence

Notă biografică

Katherine Clarke teaches mostly late republican and early imperial Roman History, covering the fascinating period of dynamic change during which Rome moved from a relatively democratic form of rule to the monarchical power of, albeit often benevolent, emperors. She has published extensively on the works of Roman historians such as Tacitus and Polybius.
