Description: The Novel in the Ancient World (Mnemosyne, Bibliotheca Classica Batava. Supplementum, 159) [Hardcover] Schmeling, Gareth Product Overview Twenty articles survey insights and approaches to the prose narrative fiction works which appeared in the later classical periods in Greece and Rome. The first 11 chapters cover issues dealing with the ancient novel: characterization, audience, social and economic structures, the influence of religion, and the portrayal of women. Chapters 12-14 contain sections on the major Greek and Roman authors and novels which constitute the canon of the ancient novel, novel-like works, and novel-like works which are not based on historiographical models. The last chapters cover fragments of lost novels, and the Christianization and Nachleben of the ancient novel. An appendix of maps illustrates routes taken in the stories.
