In this, the first prose history in European civilization, Herodotus describes the growth of the Persian Empire with force, authority and style. Perhaps most famously, the book tells the heroic tale of the Greeks' resistance to the vast invading force assembled by Xerxes, King of Persia. Here are not only the great battles-Marathon, Thermopylae and Salamis-but also penetrating human insight and a powerful sense of epic destiny at work.

Описание: The series continues . . . With Megan all alone . . . She must find her maker and complete her journey into the unknown. In order for Megan to be free, she must complete what her enemies have started. The force shot me backward as the kick pushed me through the door to a back room. I regained control of my stance through the splintered mess and noticed something crouched down and moving in a corner. Once I turned my head to gaze upon it, I could instantly recognize it was another girl. She was topless, tied up, sweaty, and looked like she had been crying. I looked back down the hall and saw him trying to regain his footing. I did not give a damn that she was not a part of my mission; she must had been abused. "Wipe my ass, you nasty, child-stealing bastard " I shouted out loud. He had blood dripping from his lips, and he grunted as sweat dripped from his brow.

Описание: Epic is dialectally mixed but Ionic at its core. The proper dialect for elegy was Ionic, even when composed by Tyrtaeus in Sparta or Theognis in Megara, both Doric areas. Choral lyric poets represent the major dialect areas: Aeolic (Sappho, Alcaeus), Ionic (Anacreon, Archilochus, Simonides), and Doric (Alcman, Ibycus, Stesichorus, Pindar). Most distinctive are the Aeolic poets. The rest may have a preference for their own dialect (some more than others) but in their Lesbian veneer and mixture of Doric and Ionic forms are to some extent dialectally indistinguishable. All of the ancient authors use a literary language that is artificial from the point of view of any individual dialect. Homer has the most forms that occur in no actual dialect. In this volume, by means of dialectally and chronologically arranged illustrative texts, translated and provided with running commentary, some of the early Greek authors are compared against epigraphic records, where available, from the same period and locality in order to provide an appreciation of: the internal history of the Ancient Greek language and its dialects; the evolution of the multilectal, artificial poetic language that characterizes the main genres of the most ancient Greek literature, especially Homer / epic, with notes on choral lyric and even the literary language of the prose historian Herodotus; the formulaic properties of ancient poetry, especially epic genres; the development of more complex meters, colometric structure, and poetic conventions; and the basis for decisions about text editing and the selection of a manuscript alternant or emendation that was plausibly used by a given author.
