Book Overview
Auli Gellii Noctium Atticarum Libri XX is a collection of anecdotes, literary criticisms, and philosophical discussions compiled by Aulus Gellius in the 2nd century AD. This edition, "Ad Optimas Editiones Collati," presents the twenty books of "Attic Nights" with careful collation to the best available editions, ensuring a faithful representation of Gellius's work.
Prefaced by "Notitia Literaria," which provides literary context, and supplemented by indices from the Societas Bipontina, this edition facilitates scholarly engagement with the text. Gellius's work offers invaluable insights into Roman intellectual life, language, law, and customs, making it an essential resource for students and scholars of classical literature and ancient history. The "Attic Nights" preserves fragments of lost works and provides a window into the cultural milieu of the Roman Empire.
