Ancient Epistolary Fictions: The Letter in Greek Literature
Rosenmeyer, Patricia A. (University of Wisconsin, Madison)
A comprehensive look at the use of imaginary letters in Greek literature, first published in 2001. 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.
