Book Overview
Greek Historical Writing and Apollo is a book consisting of two lectures delivered by Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff before the University of Oxford. The lectures explore the relationship between the Greek god Apollo and the historical writing of ancient Greece. Wilamowitz-Moellendorff examines the role of Apollo in Greek literature and the ways in which the god was used as a symbol of historical truth and accuracy. He also discusses the influence of Apollo on the development of historical writing in Greece, including the use of oracles and the importance of myth in historical narratives. The book provides a fascinating insight into the intersection of religion and history in ancient Greece and is a valuable resource for scholars and students of classical studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
