HISTORY (Herodotus & Thucydides)

Students will study the Greco-Persian and Peloponnesian Wars through close reading of the classical histories of Herodotus and Thucydides. Students will also be introduced to historiography by engaging both the “father of history” and the “father of modern history.” In Herodotus, students will observe God’s providential hand at work even within a pagan historical account, as the prophecy of Daniel is fulfilled in Greek ascendance. In Thucydides, students will examine the failures of Athenian democracy and consider why later political thinkers—including the American Founders—sought to avoid similar dangers.
