520    The contact zones between the Greco-Roman world and the 
       Near East represent one of the most exciting and fast-
       moving areas of ancient-world studies. This new collection
       of essays, by world-renowned experts (and some new voices)
       in classical, Jewish, Egyptian, Mesopotamian and Persian 
       literature, focuses specifically on prose fiction, or 'the
       ancient novel'. Twenty chapters either offer fresh 
       readings - from an intercultural perspective - of familiar
       texts (such as the biblical Esther and Ecclesiastes, 
       Xenophon of Ephesus' Ephesian Story and Dictys of Crete's 
       Journal), or introduce material that may be new to many 
       readers: from demotic Egyptian papyri through old Avestan 
       hymns to a Turkic translation of the Life of Aesop. The 
       volume also considers issues of methodology and the 
       history of scholarship on the topic. A concluding section 
       deals with the question of how narratives, patterns and 
       motifs may have come to be transmitted between cultures.
