Ancient epistolary fictions : the letter in Greek literature /

The first comprehensive look at the use of imaginary letters in Greek literature. The book challenges the notion that Ovid 'invented' the fictional letter form in the Heroides, and considers a wealth of Greek antecedents for the later European epistolary novel tradition.
