          Abstract

          Resumen: Se sabe por Plutarco, Estrabón y la Suda que Heródoto de Halicarnaso emigró a la Magna Grecia y participó en la fundación de la colonia panhelénica de Turios. La noticia de su estancia ahí se suele dar por descontada, pero las relaciones sincrónicas del historiador y de su obra con Turios no han sido suficientemente exploradas. En el siguiente artículo se propone la hipótesis de que Heródoto llevó a cabo en Turios un trabajo de capital importancia, no sólo para la nueva ciudad, sino también para la conformación y representación de sus Historias. En la realización de esta labor, es posible que Heródoto haya entrado en contacto directo con un conglomerado cultural complejo que podría arrojar luz sobre las relaciones entre la ἱστορίη, la legislación y los relatos de fundación, las cuales pueden explorarse a partir de un estudio del vocabulario de la ἀτρέκεια y de sus modos de articulación con otros conceptos arcaicos.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract: Through Plutarch, Strabo and the Suda, it is known that Herodotus of Halicarnassus migrated to Magna Graecia and got involved in the foundation of the Panhellenic colony of Thurii. The account of his stay is generally accepted, but the synchronic relationship of the historian and his work with this city has not been sufficiently explored. In the following essay a hypothesis is proposed which suggests that Herodotus did accomplish a task of capital importance at Thurii, not only for the benefit of the new city but in the shaping and performance of theHistoriesas well. It is reasonable to think that when Herodotus was there, he may have been in direct contact with a complex cultural conglomerate that could shed light on the possible links between ἱστορίη, legislation and foundation poetry; correlations that, in turn, may be explored through the study of the uses of the word ἀτρέκεια and through its forms of articulation with some other archaic concepts.

            Oral Tradition and Written Record in Classical Athens

            Despite its written literature, ancient Greece was in many ways an oral society. This is the first serious attempt to study the implications of this view. Dr Thomas stresses the coexistence of literacy and oral tradition in Greece and examines their character and interaction. Concentrating on the plentiful evidence from Classical Athens, she shows how the use of writing developed only gradually and under the influence of the previous oral communication. Drawing on anthropological discussion, the author isolates different types of Athenian oral tradition, building up a picture of Athens' traditions about its past and examining why they changed and disappeared. This study provides crucial insights into the methods and achievements of the Greek historians. It also has major implications for the interpretation of ancient literacy.
