Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Daphnis Chloe Nothing is known of the author of the Pastoralia, He describes Mytilene as if he knew it well, and he mention the peculiarities of the Lesbian vine. He may have been a Lesbian but such local colouring need not have been gathered on the spot, nor if so, by a native. His style and language are Graeco-Roman rather than Hellenistic; he probably knew Vergils Bucolics; like Strabo and Lucian he writes in Greek and yet bears a Roman name. Till the diggers discover a dated papyrus-fragment, we can say provisionally that he may have written as early as the beginning of the second century after Christ, probably not much later than the beginning of the third. Two of Longus characters connect him, indirectly at least, with the New Comedy, Gnatho the parasite, and Sophrone the nurse who exposed the infant Daphnis.
