Questions about the origin of the Greek love novel - itself the precursor of the love novel in Europe - have intrigued scholars for centuries. Stefan Tilg proposes a new solution to this ancient puzzle by arguing for a personal inventor of the genre, Chariton of Aphrodisias, whose Narratives about Callirhoe, dates from the mid-first century AD.

Katherine Panagakos, Bryn Mawr Classical Review Tilg has produced a fascinating and refreshing study of Chariton and the Greek love novel, utilizing a broad range of source material ... any classicist who has an interest in the Greek love novels will find Tilgs contribution invaluable, even if the reader is not well-acquainted with the Greek romances. When all the evidence presented in this well-researched, well-documented, and clearly written account is considered, Tilg successfully answers one of the most important questions about the invention and the inventor of the Greek love novel.

Silvia Montiglio, Ancient Narrative Tilg's book is courageous and challenging ... Tilg's book will be fundamental for scholars not only of the novel, but more generally of Greek literary history, for it tackles a central issue in ancient poetics

Konstantin Doulamis, The Classical Review well researched, and the analysis takes into account a wide range of evidence, literary, historical and archaeological. Moreover, the argument is clearly presented and, despite the rather specialised subject matter of the book, translations of ancient citations will go a long way towards rendering the monograph accessible to the non-specialist.
