This index lists all verb forms in Thucydides, with the total number of occurrences of the verbs and crossreferences to the compounds. Two appendices provide lists of verb forms that are attested in the manuscripts but have been removed by conjecture from the printed text and of all attested variant readings. In providing easy access to the verb system as it is attested in Thucydides, it is an invaluable tool for research into the verb system in Thucydides in particular and in Ancient Greek in general, on matters of lexicography or morphology, and more particularly on various aspects of the semantics of the verb system, such as the use of aspectual forms and that of the moods and voices.

Die Untersuchung widmet sich der Fragestellung nach der Funktion der Reden im thukydideischen Geschichtswerk und deren Verhältnis zur Darstellung der historischen Fakten, exemplarisch durchgeführt anhand der Analyse des Prozesses der Kriegsentstehung, wie ihn Thukydides in den Reden des ersten Buches gestaltet. Dazu werden die vier Reden auf der Tagsatzung in Sparta, die Rede der Korinther bei der Abstimmung des peloponnesischen Bundes und die erste Periklesrede durch eine gründliche Erschließung der Gedankenführung und eine eingehende Betrachtung der sprachlich-stilistischen Gestaltung umfassend interpretiert. Ausgehend von der 1,23,4-6 getroffenen Differenzierung der Kriegsursachen in aitiai kai diaphorai und alethestate prophasis zeigt Martin Hagmaier auf, wie Thukydides die beiden kausalen Erklärungsmodelle in den Reden miteinander kombiniert, um in der Synthese der aitiologischen Faktoren eine letztgültige Deutung der Kriegsverursachung zu geben. Besonderes Interesse gilt dabei der literarischen Technik des Thukydides, die einzelnen Reden durch vielfältige Bezüge und Querverbindungen miteinander zu verflechten und so die vorgebrachten Standpunkte implizit zu kommentieren

This book addresses the question of how and why history begins with the work of Thucydides. The History of the Peloponnesian War is distinctive in that it is a prose narrative, meant to be read rather than performed. It focuses on the unfolding of contemporary great power politics to the exclusion of almost all other elements of human life, including the divine. The power of Thucydides' text has never been attributed either to the charm of its language or to the entertainment value of its narrative, or to some personal attribute of the author. In this study, Darien Shanske analyzes the difficult language and structure of Thucydides' History and argues that the text has drawn in so many readers into its distinctive world view precisely because of its kinship to the contemporary language and structure of Classical Tragedy. This kinship is not merely a matter of shared vocabulary or even aesthetic sensibility. Rather, it is grounded in a shared philosophical position, in particular on the polemical metaphysics of Heraclitus.
