    Abstract
    The book explores the significance of that work for the generations of historians and other authors in the Hellenistic age (323-31 BC). It is the first monograph that fully treats the question of the fate of the History in the Hellenistic world. The book collects and analyses for the first time all the fragmentary evidence on Thucydides’ readership from the Classical and the Hellenistic period. It includes a thorough and up-to-date synoptic introduction and extensive bibliography, setting each chapter in the context of broader scholarship from XIXth century onwards.. With this book, readers shall receive a survey of manifold aspects of Thucydides in particular, and of historical writing in the Hellenistic age in general.
     
    Die vorliegende Monographie geht der Frage nach, welche Wirkung Thukydides im Hellenistischen Zeitalter (323–31 v. Chr.) entfaltete. Es bietet die erste Monographie, in welcher die Frage nach dem Schicksal des Werks des Thukydides in der hellenistischen Welt umfassend und vollständig behandelt wird. Das Buch sammelt und analysiert zum ersten Mal alle fragmentarischen Beweise für die Leserschaft des Thukydides aus der klassischen und hellenistischen Zeit. Es enthält eine gründliche und aktuelle synoptische Einführung und eine umfangreiche Bibliographie, die jedes Kapitel in den Kontext einer breiteren Gelehrsamkeit ab dem 19. Jahrhundert stellt. Damit wird Lesern ein Überblick geboten, zum einen über die vielfältigen Aspekte der Wirkungsgeschichte des Thukydides, zum anderen über das Verfassen von Historiographie im hellenistischen Zeitalter.
