Thukydides
Thucydides is an ancient Greek historian who lived in the 5th century BC.
In his work on the Peloponnesian War, he presented events in chronological order according to summer and winter seasons, and not only illuminated the dark aspects of classical Greek history, but also produced the first important work of scientific historiography.
Tucydides is considered the father of scientific history and realism.
He is the founder of the discipline of international relations.
In fact, most of the historical works written until his time were nothing more than stories.
Critical attention to events and their reasons begins with Thucydides.
He delved into deep issues in history, especially interested in the existence of the state, and used the past only to explain the history of his time.
For Thucydides, the past is a guide for the future, and his aim is to guide and teach future statesmen.
