What Is a Classic in History?

The Making of a Historical Canon

Why do some historical works, such as those of Herodotus or Gibbon, capture the imaginations of readers across generations? This study explores the power of these so-called 'classics', investigating the construction and consolidation of historical genres while innovatively examining the historiographical canon.
