Summary:"This book aims at explaining the reasons why the rhetor Aelius Aristides (117-after 180 AD) became a classic in ancient Green literature. Twenty international specialists have been invited to write a collection of essays, which offers a general overview of Aristides' activity as a writer and the reception of his work in the historical periods that followed.
