Abstract

Lucian’s Dialogues of the Gods give the impression of fleetingly sketched conversations. The purpose of this essay is to show, by means of close reading, how complex the three selected texts are, how sophisticated the author’s strategy in reworking the mythological material is and how much interpretive work is left to the readers.
