A neglected chapter in the history of Herodotus’ reception in antiquity is his treatment in ancient linguistic sources. This chapter addresses the linguistic and more widely philological interest that Herodotus aroused at two key points of antiquity: the Hellenistic age, when Greek ‘linguistics’ emerged, and the 1st–3rd centuries AD, when the con- troversies over language purity on the one hand and the historical method on the other touched upon Herodotus as well.

Abstract

A neglected chapter in the history of Herodotus’ reception in antiquity is his treatment in ancient linguistic sources. This chapter addresses the linguistic and more widely philological interest that Herodotus aroused at two key points of antiquity: the Hellenistic age, when Greek ‘linguistics’ emerged, and the 1st–3rd centuries AD, when the con- troversies over language purity on the one hand and the historical method on the other touched upon Herodotus as well.
