About this book

Previous research saw Diodorus as an author with modest intellect and a working technique of equal mediocrity, just capable enough of reconstructing forgotten historical works from the Hellenistic period. This study reveals a serious historiographer who brought an entirely original perspective to his "universal history", based on his own background, talent, and training, especially as he presented heroic figures, such as Alexander the Great.

Reviews

"Il volume è scritto in un tedesco davvero molto chiaro e la paragrafazione molto analitica è di grande aiuto nella lettura, soprattutto per il lettore straniero. Mi sembra dunque un lavoro decisamente riuscito, che aggiunge qualcosa ai contributi dei predecessori, soprattutto nel contributo offerto alla ricostruzione della biografia diodorea in base al testo della Biblioteca."
Cinzia Bearzot in: Anzeiger für die Altertumswissenschaft, LXIX. Band, Juli/Oktober 2016, 3./4. Heft: 245-249

"[...] zweifelsohne eine ideenreiche Arbeit zur Biographie und zum Werk Diodors [...]"
Bruno Bleckmann in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2017.10.51
