In the first study of its kind, the authors engage with writers including Plutarch, the emperor Julian and Nonnus of Panopolis to understand how they imagined alternative pasts and futures. A landmark new edited collection, it will be of interest of all those studying the literature and cultural history of the Mediterranean in the first millennium.

Se trata de una obra de referencia que resultará de interés para todos aquellos que estudian la literatura y la historia cultural del Mediterráneo en el primer milenio.
