  • Centre and Periphery Spatial Strategies of Storytelling in Herodotus' Histories
    Centre and Periphery Spatial Strategies of Storytelling in Herodotus’ Histories Irene Elizabeth May Stone SID# 306192233 A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of BaChelor of Arts, Honours in AnCient History 19,553 words 1 Synopsis This thesis explores aspects of Herodotus’ methods of narrative structure. Specifically, I identify what I suggest are ‘spatial’ strategies of storytelling. I argue that Herodotus at first locates and then deploys the ‘centre’ and ‘periphery’ existing in his many and diverse stories. I propose that this enables him to move with ease between these two narratival points and contend that this approach, used as a conduit for imparting various motifs and messages, illustrates his ability to engage in the abstract and demonstrates his organization of the opus into one cohesive whole. Herodotus’ employment of spatial strategies of storytelling ensures the Histories becomes a single interconnected entity rather than a work of disconnected or isolated tales exhibiting qualities both real and intangible. The thesis is divided into three chapters: Chapter One, ‘the Significance of the Nameless’, begins by investigating the use of the undisclosed individual abiding figuratively in the margins of Herodotus’ tales and argues that his use of them as literary tools moves them into closer focus as they emphasize key points and motifs for a listening audience. Chapter Two, ‘the Value of the Outsider’, examines geography in Herodotus’ Histories where the fantastic and peculiar, symbolized by the non‐Greek, reside literally on the edges of his world, and counterbalance the normalcy that dwell at its Greek centre. I also demonstrate the subtle relationship between the two, where both peripheries and inner central points become blurred by Herodotus’ own innate flexibility and his reversal of stereotypical roles.

He poured out a third drink that was larger by a finger than the first and second. Baldy was in consultation; and the consultee is worthy of his hire. "I'd be king if I was you," said Baldy, so positively that his holster creaked and his spurs rattled. Webb Yeager pushed back his flat-brimmed Stetson, and made further disorder in his straw-coloured hair. The tonsorial recourse being without by O. Henry 3 avail, he followed the liquid example of the more resourceful Baldy. "If a man marries a queen, it oughtn't to make him a two-spot," declared Webb, epitomising his grievances. "Sure not," said Baldy, sympathetic, still thirsty, and genuinely solicitous concerning the relative value of the cards. "By rights you're a king.
