PLEASE HELP ASAP

Answer 1

Thucydides is regarded as the ‘scientific historian’, relying on facts, dates, events and personalities to present the ‘factual’ narrative of history. He detested any reliance on the supernatural, abhorred subjectivity and strived to be as objective as possible, and was concerned about writing on solely the events of his own time, the only area of history where he could personally verify through examination of written records and eyewitness accounts. He is seen as the ‘Father of the Historical Method’.

Herodotus, on the other hand, is seen as the ‘sensational historian’, relying on a blend of oral accounts, gossip, myths, rumors, and synthesizing it with his own view of the events, allowing the reader to make of it what they will. He is seen as the antithesis of what it is to be a historian as he made no attempt to find ‘truth’ on a factual basis and was content to provide multiple accounts of events and leave the reader to ascertain for themselves which one they identified with the most.

Answer 2

your answer would be

Herodotus views history as a source of moral lessons, with conflicts and wars as misfortune. Herodotus, preferred moral lessons and drawing conclusions over fact, making him similar to other popular historians of the time. Thucydides uses factual reports of political and military events, based on eye-witness accounts. Thucydides' view of only factual based reports, was uncommon for the time, neither Thucydides or Herodotus, cited sources.
