520    How is it possible that modern scholars have labelled 
       Maximus of Tyre, a second-century CE performer of 
       philosophical orations, as a sophist or a ¿́¿half-
       philosopher¿́¿, while his own self-presentation is that of
       a genuine philosopher? If we take Maximus¿́¿ claim to 
       philosophical authority seriously, his case can deepen our
       understanding of the dynamic nature of Imperial 
       philosophy. Through a discursive analysis of twelve 
       Imperial intellectuals alongside Maximus¿́¿ dialexeis, the
       author proposes an interpretative framework to assess the 
       purpose behind the representation of philosophy, rhetoric,
       and sophistry in Maximus¿́¿ oeuvre. This is thus as yet 
       the first book-length attempt at situating the historical 
       communication process implicit in the surviving Maximean 
       texts in the concurrent context of the Imperial 
       intellectual world.
