Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Lucian, a second-century satirist, is celebrated for his diverse works that critique philosophical hypocrisy and explore fantastical themes, including the iconic tale of the Sorcerer's Apprentice. His influence on Western literature, particularly since the Renaissance, is significant, with figures like Erasmus and Gibbon acknowledging his impact. Often regarded as a precursor to science fiction, Lucian also provides crucial insights into early Christianity. C. P. Jones contextualizes his writing within the transformative social and intellectual landscape of Greco-Roman history.
