Herodas: Facsimile Of Papyrus CXXXV In The British Museum (1892) is a book that presents a facsimile of the ancient Greek manuscript, Papyrus CXXXV, which is housed in the British Museum. The manuscript contains six short plays or dialogues written by the Hellenistic poet Herodas, who lived in the 3rd century BC. These plays, known as mimes, offer glimpses into the everyday lives of ordinary people in ancient Alexandria, covering topics such as love, jealousy, and social status. The facsimile is accompanied by an introduction and notes by the editor, F.G. Kenyon, providing context and analysis of the text. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of ancient Greek literature and history, as well as anyone interested in the cultural and social history of the Hellenistic period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
