The aim is to show the unity of a literary project through studies on the careful arrangement of each book (overall organization, coherent reappropriation of a culture, innovations in generic hybridization) and various elements of cohesion between the four books. For this purpose, were used as tools codicological criticism, stylistic and rhetorical examination, analysis of prosody, study of thematic treatments, uses of onomastics. 410 0$aMnemosyne, Supplements$v424. 606 $aGreek literature$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGreek literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a886/.01 702 $aBiraud$b Miche?le 702 $aZucker$b Arnaud 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511783403321 996 $aThe letters of Alciphron$92553109 997 $aUNINA
