Publisher's Synopsis
De Chaerea Et Callirrhoe Amatoriarum Narrationum, Libri Octo est opus Aphrodisiensis, Charitonis, scriptum in lingua Graeca, quod narrat fabulam amoris inter Chaeream et Callirrhoen, duos adulescentes qui vivunt in urbe Syracusis. In octo libris, auctor describit amorem ferventem inter duos protagonistas, qui, obstantibus fatis, periculis et adversitatibus, luctantur ut suum amorem conservent. Historia plena est complotum, deceptio, et altercatio, et narratur in modo elegantissimo. Libri sunt pleni exquisitis descriptionibus locorum, personarum, et eventuum, quae legentem in mundum antiquum transportant. Opus est una ex primis fabulis amoris Graecis, et usque ad hodiernum diem, est consideratum unum ex pulcherrimis et elegantissimis scriptis Graecis.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
