Publisher Description
STEFAN TILG, Chariton of Aphrodisias and the Invention of the Greek Novel 2010, pp. 343. Oxford: Oxford University Press. 60.00 [pounds sterling] ISBN 978-0-19-957694-4 "The ancients tended to posit a pr[bar.o]tos heuret[bar.e]s even in areas where modern scholars are absolutely sure that there was none." So writes Joseph Farrell in a recent essay on the origin of Roman epic. (1) Stefan Tilg goes countercurrent: he posits a pr[bar.o]tos heuret[bar.e]s even in an area where the ancients did not see one. That area is the Greek love novel, and the heuret[bar.e]s would be Chariton of Aphrodisias.
