The Greek Case : from ktêma to exemplum through Archeology
When and how were the Greeks led to a conception of history as « full of examples » and « master of life » ? The first historian (Herodotus) 's concerns contained nothing similar. Thucydides did propose his history as an accomplishment for ever, but genuine history for him concerned only the present, not the past. The past became a referrent for the present and provided a model for
emulation only towards the beginning of 4th century BC, following Athens 'defeat in the Peloponnesian war. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
