Readers of Herodotus's Histories are familiar with its reports of bizarre portents, riddling oracles, and striking dreams.

This book represents an unprecedented examination of signs and their interpreters, as well as the terminology Herodotus uses to describe sign transmission, reception, and decoding. Through his control and involvement in this process he emerges as a veritable "master of signs.". …
