An Alexandrian Erotic Fragment And Other Greek Papyri, Chiefly Ptolemaic (1896) is a book written by Bernard Pyne Grenfell. It is a collection of various Greek papyri, most of which were found in Egypt and date back to the Ptolemaic period. The book includes a fragment of an erotic poem from Alexandria, which is considered to be one of the earliest examples of Greek erotic poetry. The other papyri in the book contain a range of texts, including letters, contracts, and legal documents. The book provides a valuable insight into the everyday life and culture of ancient Egypt, as well as the literary and artistic traditions of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
