This volume traces the history of German translations of Thucydides from the 18th to the 20th century and examines the strategies used by translators to reproduce in German Thucydides' extraordinarily complex and irregular style. It focuses especially on the relationship between translation practice and translation theory, showing their close interrelationship.
