Poetry

Paperback. Leucippe and Clitophon, composed in the second century AD, is the most bizarre and risque of the five 'Greek novels' of idealized love between boy and girl that survive from the period of the Roman empire. Achilles' narrative covers adultery, violence, evisceration, pederasty and virginity-testing and in execution is subtle, stylish, moving, brash, tasteless, and obscene. Translator(s): Whitmarsh, Tim. Series: Oxford World's Classics. Num Pages: 208 pages, 1 map. BIC Classification: DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 196 x 133 x 12. Weight in Grams: 158.
