Download or read book Lucian written by Francis Greenleaf Allinson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lucian: Selected Writings Repeated experience has convinced the editor that Lucian has a place in the college curriculum. The Introduction states (p. Xxix) some of the reasons for this claim, and is also intended to call atten tion to the continuity of Lucian's influence, especially from the time of the Reformation. The Conspectus of Lucian's Greek (pp. Xxxiv xlii) gives in compact form some of his peculiarities and man nerisms. It is intended as a caution to the student against certain divergences from the Attic, and, with the account of the Common Dialect, may at the same time lay emphasis on the continuity of the Greek language from Homer to the present day. The brief special Introductions to each selection are intended to secure a sympathetic reading of the individual pieces rather than to serve as summaries of their contents.

Harmon agreed with this view and suggested that it may have been the work of an unknown schoolmaster who had lived In Egypt (of. C. 5) and had read Lexiphanes This view may well be c.orrect See, however, my article in Classical Quarterly, 1956, where I argue that this dialogue could indeed be by Lucian and 18 best taken as a spiteful and at times hypocritical attack on a personal enemy who has offended Lucian by criticising his Greek.
