摘要
希罗多德《历史》所述主题为希腊人与异族人之纷争及其原因,书中"希腊人"、"异族人"分别皆有多层面的含义,必须依据文本内容和语境具体加以辨析。希氏在其著作中往往站在波斯人的立场上讨论波希战争及其相关问题,在确认这场战争的起因和终结时间等关键问题时就是如此。《历史》无疑是一部完整记载波希战争的著作。只有彻底摈弃学术史上某些积习和偏见,才有可能对希罗多德的成就和不足作出客观公正的评价。
The theme of Herodotus' Historia is the feud and its reasons between the Greeks and barbarians(mainly Persians). In the book, the terms " Greeks" and "barbarians". respectively have manifold meanings, thus they must be specifically distinguished and analysed. Herodotus usually stood in the Persian's position to discuss the Persian Wars and the related issues in his Historia, and he did so when confirming key issues such as the starting point and the finishing point of the war. Historia is undoubtedly a work on the whole Persian Wars. Only by abandoning some confirmed habits and prejudices in academic history can we have an objective and fair assessment of Herodotus' achievements and shortcomings.
