　　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.

· Comprehensive, sophisticated critical introduction to the Greek

and Roman novel · Emphasises critical themes rather than focusing

upon individual texts · Includes guidance for further reading
