Author: Lucas Herchenroeder
Herchenroeder's study focuses on Polybius' use of concepts such as causality, probability, and the role of divine influence in human affairs. The book also addresses how Polybius' historiographical methods reflect the intellectual climate of the Hellenistic era, which was marked by advancements in various sciences, including mathematics, astronomy, and geography.
By analyzing Polybius' Histories within this broader intellectual context, the author sheds light on how Polybius' work was not just a historical account but also a reflection of the contemporary understanding of science and its application to history. The text provides a detailed discussion of Polybius' approach to the study of history, comparing his methods to those of earlier historians and philosophers.
This work is valuable for anyone interested in ancient historiography, the intellectual history of the Hellenistic period, and the ways in which history and science were intertwined in ancient thought.
