Achilles Tatius' Leucippe and Clitophon is a 'Greek novel' composed in the second century AD. Like the other four novels that survive from this period, it focuses on the mutual love of a boy and a girl and the travails and obstacles that prevent them from consummating that love. What distinguishes Leucippe and Clitophon is its exuberant style and racy content. This new translation (which incorporates detailed notes) aims to capture the variety and vivacity of Achilles Tatius' writing. A substantial introduction sets the text in its historical and literary contexts.
