A Study of Daphnis and Chloe - Hardcover

by R. Lanny Hunter (Author), P. E. Easterling (Editor), M. K. Hopkins (Editor)

This 1983 book provides a serious modern literary treatment of perhaps the best known of all surviving works of ancient Greek fiction. Dr Hunter demonstrates the sophistication of this pastoral romance, a sophistication which he maintains has often been assumed but never properly discussed. Evidence for the identity of the author and the date of composition are also considered.
