Bringing together an international team of historians, classicists,
and scholars of religion, this volume provides the first
comprehensive overview of the extant Greek and Latin letter
collections of late antiquity (ca. 300-600 c.e.). Each chapter
addresses a major collection of Greek or Latin literary letters,
introducing the social and textual histories of each collection and
examining its assembly, publication, and transmission.
Contributions also reveal how collections operated as discrete
literary genres, with their own conventions and self-presentational
agendas. This book will fundamentally change how people both read
these texts and use letters to reconstruct the social history of
the fourth, fifth, and sixth centuries.
