spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/8081 A historical commentary on Cornelius Nepos life of Themistocles Musnick, Larry Jason Wardle, D Classical Studies Includes bibliographical references (p. 155-158). In writing a biography on Themistocles, Nepos consulted Greek sources, mainly consulted Thucydides. Nepos often paraphrases and quotes Thucydides, while also expressing his opinion on the death of Themistocles. When he departs from Thucydides' account, he uses Ephorus. The other extant, ancient sources on Themistocles are predominantly Greek, namely Plutarch, Herodotus, and Diodorus. Justin's Latin epitome of Trogus also covers this period. 2014-10-06T11:03:01Z 2014-10-06T11:03:01Z 2008 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8081 eng application/pdf Classical Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
