Greek and Latin Letters: An Anthology with Translation - Paperback

by Michael Trapp (Author), Michael Trapp (Editor), P. E. Easterling (Editor)

The seventy-eight letters in this Anthology are selected both for their intrinsic interest and to illustrate the range of functions letters performed in the ancient world. Dating from between c.500 BC and c.400 AD, they include naive and high-style, "real" and "fictitious", and classical and patristic items.
