Armin Unfricht has published his diploma-thesis as a book with Leykam. From the blurb: "The Peloponnesian War of the Athenian Thucydides is considered the beginning of a new era: the critical-enlightened method of historiography. The gods are not given any direct influence on the events of the war he described. Using a variety of case studies, a vivid picture is drawn of how Greek religious ideas are negotiated on the political stage. And how religious practices, ideas, and institutions exert both direct and indirect Armin Unfricht 1988 in influence on the war events depicted."
Congratulations, Armin!
