This volume aims to provide a survey of the ways in which non-historical texts, as well as historical ones, can be used to construct Greek history. The author introduces the book with a chapter on the inventiveness of ancient authors and explores the genres of literature from which we construct our accounts of ancient history. He examines the fifth century authors Demosthenes, Lysias and Thucydides, as well as Greek tragedy and comedy, to show the different kinds of historical information that can be extracted from apparently recalcitrant texts.
