Exploring the Experiences and Challenges of Breastfeeding Beyond 2 Years in the United Kingdom
The World Health Organization recommend that babies are breastfed up to 2 years old and beyond. Breastfeeding beyond infancy continues to provide physical and mental health benefits for mothers and supports nutrition, immunity and development for children. However, there is a dearth of research exploring the experiences of women who breastfeed beyond 2 years, particularly in countries such as the United Kingdom, where only a small percentage of m…

Chariton and Xenophon of Ephesus
This chapter discusses the novels of Chariton and Xenophon of Ephesus. Both are engaged with central concerns of the Second Sophistic, in particular that of elite Greek identity. Chariton’s novel (composed in the second century and connected with the sophist Dionysius of Miletus) demonstrates the same empathetic recreation of the classical past as sophistic declamation, and defines the Greekness of his protagonists in antithesis to a Persia confi…
Heliodorus the Hellene
Heliodorus the Hellene
Longus
Heliodorus
Petronius and Greek Literature
This chapter contains sections titled: Homer Plato The Greek Novel Conclusion Further Reading
Fiction and History
The most plausible estimate of the date of composition of this novel is the first century ce, around five hundred years later than the setting of which the narrator writes in the present tense. The narrator's persona is also historiographical rather than novelistic. He avoids effects of suspense and surprise by keeping his narratee fully informed at almost all times; so when the heroine is presumed dead and entombed alive, the narrator makes sure…
Chapter Twenty-Seven. Chariton
Chapter Twenty-Nine. Longus
Chapter Twenty-Eight. Xenophon Of Ephesus
In many important respects Xenophon's handling of time is like Chariton's (). For the most part this is a straightforward narrative in chronological order, but the author's ambition to cram as much sensational incident into as short a compass as possible has led to some difficulties and oddities. It must remain an open question to what extent if any this is due to the status of the text that we have. Arguments that our version of the Ephesiaca is…

The Ancient Novel at the End of the Century
Two Giraffes Emended
In 1880 Spyridon Lambros discovered in the library of the Dionysiou monastery on Mount Athos a manuscript containing, among other things, the missing second book of a compilation of zoological lore made for the emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos (912–59), generally referred to as the Sylloge Constantini . The first book, already known from a manuscript in Paris, proclaims in its heading that the compilation was based on the epitome of Arist…
Lucian's True Histories and the Wonders Beyond Thule of Antonius Diogenes
The 166th codex of the Bibliotheke of Photios comprises a summary of a peculiar work written by one Antonius Diogenes, entitled τ⋯ ὑπ⋯ρ Θούλην ἄπιστα . This told the story of an Arkadian named Deinias, who travelled the world κατ⋯ ζήτησιν ἱστορίας (109a 13–14), coming eventually to Thule, where he met Mantinias and Derkyllis, a brother and sister from Tyre, and struck up an erotic relationship with Derkyllis (109a 26). A narrative of Derkyllis, t…
