Lucian lived in the second century AD and though his mother tongue
was probably Aramaic he was famous for his witty satire and
polished Greek. The aim of this selection is to produce a
representative coverage of some of Lucians best work, particularly
those pieces not available in recent editions or translations. Five
of the nine works offered are examples of the comic, satiric
dialogue as that was Lucians forte, but also included to illustrate
the authors versatility are an autobiography, a satirical
discourse, a description of a painting and a major work of literary
criticism. Greek text with facing-page treanslation, introduction
and commentary
