Line 1: {{work}} {{quote\| ''Looking back now... I believe the library was the beginning of everything.''}} The new{{when}} manga series and ''magnum opus'' from Hitoshi Iwaaki, maker of ''[[Parasyte]]''. ''Historie'' is a historical epic that tells the story of Eumenes of Cardia, secretary and servant of Alexander the Great. [[It Was His Sled\|Just don't check his Wiki entry]]. While on the run from the Persian Empire, ''the'' Aristotle meets the young Eumenes, a Greek in barbarian garb. The quick-witted Eumenes helps Aristotle escape to Europe from Asia. Both are on their way to Cardia, Eumenes' hometown. There Eumenes sees it under siege by a Macedonian army, and soon his life will take an entirely different path. {{tropelist}} ~~----~~ ~~This manga provides examples of:~~ * [[Ancient Greece]]: Classical Greece, to be exact. * [[Artistic License History]]: {{spoiler\|The author chose to make Hephaestion a split personality of Alexander's, not his [[Heterosexual Life Partners\|friend]] or (possible) lover.}} Line 16 ⟶ 15: * [[King Incognito]]: {{spoiler\|King Philippos of Macedonia}} * [[MacGyvering]]: Eumenes makes a lot of things with his hands; in the beginning he outfits a boat with paddles made from tree branches that work by pedaling. * [[Moses in ~~The~~the Bulrushes]]: {{spoiler\|Eumenes is actually a Scythian who was adopted by a slaver and raised as a Greek.}} * [[Royally Screwed -Up]]: Something's not right about Alexander's family life. * [[Shown Their Work]]: An accurate deciption of <s>Ancient</s> Classical Greece, complete with references to literature, culture, science, geography and warfare. And not to mention how obscure a historical figure Eumenes is. Line 24 ⟶ 23: [[Category:Manga]] [[Category:Historie]] [[Category:Historical Fiction]]
