In `The Letters of Alciphron: A Unified Literary Work?', Michele Biraud and Arnaud
Zucker have gathered a dozen international contributions about the collection of letters
of Alciphron, hitherto mainly studied as part of the epistolary genre at the time
of the Second Sophistic or as testimony of a nostalgia for the Athens of Menander's
time.0The aim is to show the unity of a literary project through studies on the careful
arrangement of each book (overall organization, coherent reappropriation of a culture,
innovations in generic hybridization) and various elements of cohesion between the
four books. For this purpose, were used as tools codicological criticism, stylistic
and rhetorical examination, analysis of prosody, study of thematic treatments, uses
of onomastics
