This book presents radically revised and updated versions of the most important and innovative articles published by Alan Cameron in the field of late antique Greek poetry and philosophy, attempting to define pagan and Christian elements in early Byzantine literary culture. The longest chapter presents a new account of the closing of the Academy of Athens, and a new article discusses recent theories on the date of the epigrammatist Palladas.
