Greek Fiction The Greek Novel in Context

Greek fiction has never been more popular. New approaches to ancient literature, and the increase in courses in literature in translation, have made the ancient novel a fertile field for scholar and student alike.This volume extends the boundaries of the subject beyond the 'canon' of the romances properly called and examines Greek fictional writing in the widest possible context, including texts that are not normally treated as novels, such as various kinds of sacred or quasi-historical texts. The editors hope to open up the definition of Greek fiction to further debate and to create cross-currents between scholars working in diverse fields.Morgan, J. R. is the author of 'Greek Fiction The Greek Novel in Context' with ISBN 9780415085076 and ISBN 0415085071.
