These intersections are explored in this volume. Papers in the first section discuss "mapping the world in the novels." The second part looks at the dialogical imagination, and the conversation between fiction and history in the novels. Section 3 looks at the way ancient fiction has been transmitted and received. Space, as the locus of cultural interaction and exchange, is the topic of the fourth part. The fifth and final section is devoted to character and emotion, and how these are perceived or constructed in ancient fiction. Overall, a rich picture is offered of the many spatial and cultural dimensions in a variety of ancient fictional genres.Trends in classics.Supplementary volumes ;v. 40.Classical fictionHistory and criticismCongressesCulture in literatureCongressesAncient novel.cross-cultural.fiction.space.Classical fictionHistory and criticismCulture in literature883/.0109FB 6085rvkFutre Pinheiro M(Marília),Konstan DavidMacQueen Bruce D.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910828427203321Cultural crossroads in the ancient novel2643933UNINA
