Index - The History of Herodotus - by Herodotus (translated 1890)
The goal of this new translation of Herodotus is above all things faithfulness. Faithfulness to the manner of expression and to the structure of sentences, as well as to the meaning of the Author. At the same time it is conceived that the freedom and variety of Herodotus is not always best reproduced by such severe consistency of rendering as is perhaps desirable in the case of the Epic writers before and the philosophical writers after his time.
