As long as the subject of history is studied, the fame of the Athenian Thucydides will be secure. His stature as an historian has never been surpassed and rarely equaled. In his History of the Peloponnesian War, he accomplished what few others have: He wrote an eyewitness account of the events of the war as they unfolded.

Short Bibliography on Thucydides - English

shown in filters: References and Indices

This bibliography includes neither dissertations nor translations. For the most part, it lists books, not articles. The next-to-last section (Interpretation), listing books published in the last twenty years or so, does not include studies of two or more ancient historians of whom Thucydides is one. For more complete bibliographies, see the final section, Bibliographies. I would be most grateful for corrections and suggestions, which can be sent to edmunds@rci.rutgers.edu.

Ancient History Sourcebook: 11th Brittanica: Thucydides - English
URL: http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/ancient/eb11-thucydides.html

Athenian historian. Materials for his biography are scanty, and the facts are of interest chiefly as aids to the appreciation of his life's labour, the History of the Peloponnesian War. The older view that he was probably born in or about 471 B.C., is based on a passage of Aulus Gellius, who says that in 431 Hellanicus "seems to have been" sixtyfive years of age, Herodotus fiftythree and Thucydides forty (Noct. att. xv. 23). The authority for this statement was Pamphila, a woman of Greek extraction, who compiled biographical and historical notices in the reign of Nero. The value of her testimony is, however, negligible, and modern criticism inclines to a later date, about 460 (see Busolt, Gr. Gesch. iii., pt. 2, P. 621).

Thucydides - English
URL: http://www.wsu.edu:8080/~dee/GREECE/THUCY.HTM

The growth of the Athenian Empire and the power accruing to Athens aroused the fears of Sparta and other mainland states, especially Corinth, whose trade interests seemed to be threatened by Athens's control of the sea and so many of the islands and ports of the Aegean Sea. The Greek world split into two blocks of states, Athens and her Empire on one side, Sparta and her allies on the other. Both sides expected war, and it broke out in 431 over incidents in Corcyra and Potidaea (in northern Greece). Known as the Peloponnesian War, the conflict lasted (off and on) until 404, when Athens was defeated.
