The Greek and Roman novels of Petronius, Apuleius, Longus,
Heliodorus and others have been cherished for millennia, but never
more so than now. The Cambridge Companion to the Greek and Roman
Novel contains nineteen original essays by an international cast of
experts in the field. The emphasis is upon the critical
interpretation of the texts within historical settings, both in
antiquity and in the later generations that have been and continue
to be inspired by them. All the central issues of current
scholarship are addressed: sexuality, cultural identity, class,
religion, politics, narrative, style, readership and much more.
Four sections cover cultural context of the novels, their contents,
literary form, and their reception in classical antiquity and
beyond. Each chapter includes guidance on further reading. This
collection will be essential for scholars and students, as well as
for others who want an up-to-date, accessible introduction into
this exhilarating material.
