Despite the fact that postmodern aesthetics deny the existence or
validity of genres, the tendency nowadays is to assume that there
was in Antiquity a homogeneous group of works of narrative prose
fiction that, despite their differences, displayed a series of
recurrent, iterative, thematic, and formal characteristics, which
allows us to label them novels. The papers assembled in this volume
include extended prose narratives of all kind and thereby widen and
enrich the scope of the canon. The essays explore a wide variety of
texts, crossed genres, and hybrid forms, which transgress the
boundaries of the so-called ancient novel, providing an excellent
insight into different kinds of narrative prose in antiquity.
