Πελοποννησιακός Πόλεμος, Τόμος δεύτερος
by Thucydides
Translated by I. Zervos
"Πελοποννησιακός Πόλεμος, Τόμος δεύτερος" by Thucydides is a historical account written during the late 5th century BC. This work chronicles the devastating war between Athens and Sparta, ending abruptly mid-sentence in 411 BC. Thucydides, himself an Athenian general, employs rigorous chronology and extensive speeches to capture the conflict's complexity. His methodology strips away divine intervention, focusing instead on human choices and political realities. The result is a pioneering work of historical scholarship that scholars still debate—objective science or artful literature?
