Strabo’s Geography is one of the principal sources from the beginning of the ‘common era’ that has long and actively been used with regard to the history and geography of the oikoumene.
During the last half-century, a non-critical (illustrative and consumerist) or hypercritical approach has gradually been replaced with the awareness of the fact that, prior to its use ...

The author, analyzing the creative method of Strabo, examines the question of who was the “addressee” of his “Geography”, and concludes that this work should be considered as example of a “teaching” genre, and it was intended for representatives of the political and intellectual elite of the pro-Roman orientation. Over time, however, the significance of ...

Цель данного исследования – выявление лексем,
которые Страбон использует для обозначения понятия «язык» в тех
случаях, когда речь идет о языке как об этно-культурном факторе,
анализ соответствующих контекстов и реконструкция представлений
самого Страбона о языке и языках: какую роль для него играет язык в
этнической идентификации того или иного племени или народа, как

Считая географию частью философии, Страбон создаёт произведение, призванное наставлять государственного деятеля и сопоставимое по всеохватности с политическими достижениями Римской Империи. Осмысление закономерностей политического, социального и культурного развития племен оказывается важнее практических географических сведений, которые Страбон не считает необходимыми для его адресата. Дидактизм «Географии», обращенный к правителю, и создание «империи знания», которая одновременно и служит пользе государства и сопоставима с ним ...
