Excerpt from Lucian, Vol. 1 of 8 M. Croiset, but it cannot be called entirely successful. The order in which they are to be presented in this edition is that followed in the best manuscripts, which, through its adoption in Rabe's edition of the scholia to Lucian and in Nilen's edition of the text, bids fair to become standard.

Excerpt from Lucian, Vol. 8 of 8: With English Translation This dialogue has been rejected as non-lucianic by manyauthorities on the ground that it is unworthy Of Lucian s talents and seems to criticise a number Of Lucian' s own usages. Harmon agreed with this view and suggested that it may have been the work of an unknown schoolmaster who had lived In Egypt (of. C. 5) and had read Lexiphanes This view may well be c.orrect See, however, my article in Classical Quarterly, 1956, where I argue that this dialogue could indeed be by Lucian and 18 best taken as a spiteful and at times hypocritical attack on a personal enemy who has offended Lucian by criticising his Greek.

Excerpt from Lucian, Vol. 2 of 7: With an English Translation The part played by the Fates is unusual. Instead of spinning destinies up aloft as in the Charon, two of them are given a share In the convoying of souls to the underworld, Atropos turning them over to Hermes and Clotho presiding over their reception at the ferry. Clotho' s function thus in great measure duplicates that assigned to Aeaous. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
