Time and Narrative in Ancient Historiography: The 'Plupast' from Herodotus to Appian
Jonas Grethlein
References to the past embedded in historical narratives have until now not received the same systematic attention as references to the stage and poetry in plays (metatheatre) and poems (metapoetics). This volume offers case studies of the past embedded in the past as a window into the ancient historians' workshop.
