Donald Lateiner Professor Emeritus of Humanities and Classics at Ohio Wesleyan University, became interested in Herodotus because of his obsession with Thucydides, Herodotus’ competitor and perhaps contemporary. He has published many articles and one book on him: The Historical Method of Herodotus (Toronto, 1989). His interests digressed from traditional historiographical analysis to nonverbal behaviors in historiography and epic, and methods of narration in ancient fictions. Recent studies include the emotions of disgust (Ancient Emotion of Disgust, Oxford University Press (2017), co‐editor D. Spatharas) and hope, embarrassment, protocols of humiliation, and the human senses, especially smell and taste, in Greek historiography and Greek and Latin fictions.
