ARCHIVE - 14. HERODOTUS - THE HISTORIES~BOOK IX/SECTIONS 1-122 (12/15/08 - 12/21/08) ~ No spoilers, please

[Bentley, Group Founder, Leader, Chief]

Hello Everyone,

For the week of December 15th through December 21st, we are reading approximately the next 50 pages of Herodotus - The Histories.

This thread will discuss the following book and sections:

(Book IX- Sections 1 - 122)

We will open up a thread for each week's reading. Please make sure to post in the particular thread dedicated to those specific chapters and page numbers to avoid spoilers. We will also open up supplemental threads.

NOTE:

In the Penguin Edition, Book IX, section 1 starts on page 554 and goes through section 122 which concludes on page 603.

This thread should only deal with these sections and with Book Nine (although previous parts of Herodotus already discussed can be referenced). No spoilers, please.

Discussion on these sections will begin on December 15th.

Welcome,

Bentley
