Classic bilingual collection. “A game of love and literature – where chance merges with the manipulations of the author, who behind the lover Clitophon constantly signals to the author, the novel of Leucippé and Clitophon is a singular work that breaks the stereotype of the “idealistic Greek novel. Multiplying adventures and loving couples, false deaths and ingenious escapes, mixing rhetorical prestige, themes from the anthology, Platonic shifts and “scabrous Phoenician tales, it creates a world of fiction where everything blurs, where the pleasure of a “sophistic Eros” merges with the pleasure of philosophical discourses which themselves resemble a “swarm of myths.
