Excerpt from Alciphronis Rhetoris Epistularum Libri IV
Seileriana igitur opera fundamentum criticum satis firmum jactum esse videbatur, et Aug. Meineke ad ed. Suam, quae eodem anno MDCCCLIII Lipsiae sumptibus B. G. Teubneri prodiit, non tantum nullum novum adhi buit librum ms., verum etiam de codd. Notis Seilero cre didit. Attamen haec editio ideo magni est pretii, quia Meinekius textui adhibere potuit totam Vaticani Floren tini Veneti collationem Seilerianam, nec non cum in supple mento critico copioso nobiscum conjecturas suas nonnun quam ingeniosissimas communicaverit. Neque mimm est inde ab illo anno Optimum quemque criticum quasi cer tatim de Alciphrone disputasse.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed study of the epistles of Alciphron, a Greek sophist, rhetor, and philosopher who lived and wrote in the second century CE. As his epistles are typical of the genre, the author analyses them in order to illustrate the epistolary art as it was cultivated during the Second Sophistic period. This study examines how Alciphron's epistles mirror the style and approach of earlier authors as well as some of the concerns of the time such as society, the role of women, the importance of the individual versus the collective, and the clash between tradition and modernity. A selection of these epistles are translated in order to provide a selection of Alciphron's work for those unfamiliar with it but who are interested in Greek literature or the epistolary form.
