The picture of Lucian that emerges, an innovative traditionalist acutely aware of and capable of rendering the varied cultural texture peculiar to his time, is thoroughly persuasive. (…) The riddles involved in assessing the relationship between social life and the products of art are not of course peculiar to any single approach but must be faced in any attempt to understand the literature of the past on its own terms. Within the framework he has chosen, Jones sifts the evidence with meticulous care and succeeds in dispelling many misperceptions. His inquiry provides a solid foundation for further studies, whether literary of historical in focus. As a careful examination of Lucian in an historical context Jones’ study will remain a standard for many years, and I recommend it highly.’ (R. BRACHT BRANHAM in The Classical World, 1988, pp.316-317). |
