Ancient Fiction (Routledge Revivals): The Novel in the Graeco-Roman World

By Graham Anderson

Book Overview

Ancient Fiction

, first published in 1984, examines the achievements of ancient novelists in their own right. In presenting character, structuring narrative, imposing a veneer of sophistication or contriving a religious ethos, these writers demonstrate that their work is worthy of sympathetic study, rather dismissal as the pulp fiction of the ancient world.
