O książce

In «Lucian's True History,» Lucian of Samosata embarks on a satirical and fantastical journey that defies the conventional boundaries of narrative form. Written in the second century CE, this work weaves together elements of science fiction, parody, and philosophical inquiry, as Lucian recounts a voyage to the moon and encounters with fantastical beings and societies. The literary style is characterized by sharp wit and a playful tone that critiques contemporary society, mythological beliefs, and the art of storytelling itself. Set against the backdrop of an increasingly skeptical and intellectually curious Hellenistic world, the narrative serves as both entertainment and a profound commentary on human folly and imagination. Lucian of Samosata, a notable rhetorician, philosopher, and satirist, cultivated a distinctive voice that reverberated through the ages. His background in oratory and a keen interest in the literary traditions of both Greek and Roman cultures equipped him with the tools to question and ridicule the credulousness of his contemporaries. This intellectual environment, combined with his encounters across a diverse cultural landscape, deeply influenced «True History,» infusing it with a rich tapestry of ideas and provocations. For readers seeking a stimulating exploration of satire that transcends its temporal context, «Lucian's True History» is a must-read. It invites reflection on the absurdities of human existence while simultaneously captivating with its imaginative scope. Whether you are interested in satire, philosophy, or the evolution of literary genres, this work offers invaluable insights and a delightful journey into the absurd.
