Aulus Gellius (125–180)
Autor de Attic nights, books 1-5
Sobre El Autor
An engaging writer of the Antonine period, Aulus Gellius was a man of wide interests and great admiration for Greek culture. His Attic Nights is a collection of absorbing short chapters about notable events, words and questions of literary style, lives of historical figures, points of law, and mostrar más philosophical issues that served as instructive light reading for the cultivated Roman. The work's title derives simply from the fact that Gellius began to write these pieces during stays in Athens. Variety adds to the charm of the miscellany: the author makes use of reminiscence as a literary form, dramatizations, character sketches, dialogues, extensive quotations from other writers (many from works now lost). He was long considered a model of the perennial humanist. mostrar menos

Bought a sale copy of vol. II of the Noctes Atticae having noticed that OUP are now adding Gellius to their list of print-on-demand volumes. I refuse to buy such rubbish. I'm reading the work for pleasure: I demand a book that is a pleasure to read.

One of the more interesting items that is NOT linguistic in nature is what is (apparently -- I checked Wikipedia) the first appearance of the story of "Androcles and the Lion" (though it's "Androclus" here). Overall this work reminds me a bit of Macrobius' "Saturnalia" where, again, the goings-on most often circle around weird Latin usages in Vergil, and so on. Not bad.… (más)
