  Arguing for the importance of the first-century historian Josephus to the study of classical and Hellenistic literature, this title investigates letters in Josephus' texts. It analyzes classical, Hellenistic, and Jewish texts' use of letters, comparing those texts to Josephus' narratives, a virtual archive containing hundreds of letters.
