Description
Excerpt from The Story of Daphnis and Chloe: A Greek Pastoral by Longus; Edited With Text, Introduction, Translation and Notes
It is indeed more than doubtful whether the title Sophist really belongs to him, and it has been suggested with greater probability that some confusion between two writers Of the same name arose at an early date, and that as a result the pastoral was wrongly assigned to the Sophist.
There is a similar uncertainty about his date, which ranges according to the various Opinions between the beginning Of the third and the end of the fifth century in the Christian era, the late Sir Richard Jebb inclining to the later date on literary grounds.
