| Zusammenfassung: |
This book offers an overall view of the ways in which digressions were diachronically used by ancient historians from the genre's first steps in the 5th century BCE up to the Imperial Era. The authors of this volume mainly focus on the importance of digressions for the narrative arrangement of Greco-Roman historical accounts and on the ways in which excursuses contributed to the authors' interaction with their readers. |
