Excerpt from Larcher's Notes on Herodotus, Vol. 1 of 2: Historical and Critical Remarks on the Nine Books of the History of Herodotus; With a Chronological Table Tun Notes of Larcher are published not only in illustra tion of the Greek Text of Herodotus, but as tending to throw a strong and well-directed light on some of the most important questions which have interested or can interest scholars. They may in fact be considered rather as a series of essays than as annotations: and many of them may be read as such with ad vantage, either with or without reference to the Greek text.

Excerpt from Larcher's Notes on Herodotus, Vol. 1 of 2: Historical and Critical Comments on the History of Herodotus, With a Chronological Table M. Larcher was too well informed not to perceive how hard it is to translate faithfully a historian whose meaning is veiled from our eyes in such a variety of ways. It was not enough to have a thorough know ledge of Greek; a profound study of antiquity also was required to be added to it. It was necessary to read over, pen in hand, all the ancient writers, in order to find the means of clearing up obscure passages by comparison. The deep researches to which he devoted himself, in the course of this undertaking, passed into the notes of his work. Hence that voluminous commentary, the prolixity of which is so justly com plained of. It were to be desired that the author had sacrificed some of those digressions, in which he states, at every step, the opinions of others, without ever offering on his own part any satisfactory solution, and in which his chief object seems to be, to show how much he has read. But whatever may be its faults, this work, containing, as it does, an immense number of facts as well as of novel and instructive discus sions, is still one destined to maintain for ever an honourable place in the records of learning.
