Herodotos Türk entelektüel camiasında gayet bilinen bir figürdür, hatta yüzeysel düzeyde de olsa, Herodotos toplumun sıradan kesimleri için dahi tanıdık bir isimdir ve Herodotos’u merak eden herkes, eserinin çeşitli Türkçe çevirileri sayesinde bu merakını giderebilir. Herodotos Türk eskiçağ tarihçilerinin ve mevzubahis döneme ilgi gösterenlerin eserlerinde sık sık başvurulan bir tarihçidir fakat onu ve eserini eleştiriye tabi tutan çalışmaların sayısı yakın dönemlere kadar çok azdır. Bu genel tablo ise son yıllarda Herodotos ve eserine dair Türkçe yayımlanan çalışmalar neticesinde yavaş yavaş değişmektedir. Bu yazı Türkçede Herodotos üzerine yapılan çalışmaları değerlendirmeyi ve özellikle konuya ilgi gösteren Türk eskiçağ tarihçilerinin eğilimlerini göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır. Belki bu şekilde, eseri Türkiye’nin tarihi için vazgeçilmez nitelikteki Herodotos üzerine Türkçe literatürde yapılan çalışmaların sebeplerini ve genel niteliklerini de anlayabiliriz.

Herodotus is widely known in Turkish intellectual circles. Despite its superficiality, his is a very familiar name even for those with a high school degree, and anyone curious about him can benefit from the translations of his work that are available to the Turkish audience. Herodotus has been a common point of reference in the works of Turkish ancient historians and others who deal with that period, but works devoted to the critical assessment of the historian had been very scarce until recently. This picture of scarcity changed over the past decades as more and more studies in Turkish delved into Herodotus and his work. This paper aims to evaluate the recent Herodotean scholarship in Turkey, as well as to attempt to illustrate the tendencies of Turkish ancient historians who are interested in this subject. In this way, perhaps one can also understand the motives and habits of Turkish scholarship on Herodotus and his work, which are undoubtedly indispensable for the ancient history of Turkey.
