International audiencePart of a larger study on a possible early form of orientalism in Greek and Latin literature, the present paper focuses on the vocabulary of what Moderns call « Orient » and « Orientals » within the work of the Athenian historian Thucydides. Whereas he is dealing primarily with the Peloponnesian War, he is sometimes discussing the Asiatic continent as well as its people.
