{"product_id":"lucian-selected-dialogues","title":"Lucian: Selected Dialogues","description":"A translation of fourteen of Lucian's dialogues, offering a cross-section of his styles and satirical targets, from serious polemic (Alexander, Peregrinus) to lighter squibs and character-portrayals (Dialogues of the Courtesans). Also included are  How to Write History and his most famous piece, A True History, a parody of the popular vogue for fabulous traveller's tales. Each piece has a summary introduction, and notes to clarify obscure allusions in the text. The Introduction examines in some detail Lucian's importance as a dominant Atticizer in the period of the Second Sophistic, as well as his extraordinarily widespread influence on later European literature.","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54227971965272,"sku":"9780199258673","price":115.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780199258673.jpg?v=1764852334","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/lucian-selected-dialogues","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
