330 8 $aJessica Priestley explores some of the earliest ancient responses to Herodotus' 'Histories' from the early and middle Hellenistic period. Through discussions of contemporary discourse relating to the Persian Wars, geography, literary style, and biography, it nuances our understanding of how ancient readers reacted to and appropriated the 'Histories'.
