This book offers a captivating new interpretation of Lucian as a fictional theorist and writer to stand alongside the novelists of the day, bringing to bear on his works a whole new set of reading strategies. It argues that the aesthetic and cultural issues Lucian faced, in a world of mimesis and replication, were akin to those found in postmodern contexts: the ubiquity of the fake, the erasure of origins, the focus on the freakish and weird at the expense of the traditional. In addition to exploring the texture of Lucian's own writing, Dr ní Mheallaigh uses Lucian as a focal point through which to examine other fictional texts of the period, including Antonius Diogenes' The Incredible Things Beyond Thule, Dictys' Journal of the Trojan War and Ptolemy Chennus' Novel History, and reveals the importance of fiction's engagement with its contemporary culture of writing, entertainment and wonder.

"Observateur hors pair, critique acerbe, orateur virtuose qui manie l'humour et l'ironie tout autant qu'il se plaît aux références intertextuelles et aux réflexions métalittéraires, Lucien de Samosate est un des grands noms du Ile siècle après J.-C. Son influence sur des oeuvres aussi variées que l'Éloge de la Folie d'Érasme, Pantagruel et Gargantua de Rabelais, les Dialogues des morts de Fontenelle, les Voyages de Gulliver de Swift et les Petites oeuvres morales de Leopardi témoigne de l'étendue de ses expérimentations littéraires. C'est à l'une des spécificités de l'écriture lucianesque, la mixis, que le présent ouvrage est consacré. Le mélange des genres à l'oeuvre chez Lucien y est examiné par un ensemble de spécialistes dans ses dimensions théoriques et pratiques. En effet, si Lucien se revendique fièrement comme l'inventeur d'un type particulier de mélange, le dialogue comique, une multiplicité d'autres formes, d'autres "ingrédients" sont convoqués dans ses textes. En s'interrogeant sur la nature de la mixis, sur ses modalités et sur ses fonctions, ainsi que sur ses effets, il s'agit de proposer une synthèse sur un des éléments clés de la poétique lucianesque."--Back cover.
