Philostratus the Athenian was a third century AD sophist, who settled in Rome as a member of the learned circle of the Empress Julia Domna. His celebrated ‘Life of Apollonius of Tyana’ is by far the longest biography to survive from classical times and it became one of the most widely discussed literary works of later antiquity. It employs an engaging style that brings to life its charismatic subject — a teacher and religious reformer that travels across the known world, from the Atlantic to the Ganges. His miracles, which include extraordinary cures and inexplicable disappearances, blended with his apparent triumph over death, resulted in many pagans regarding Apollonius as a rival to Jesus of Nazareth. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Greek texts. This eBook presents Philostratus’ collected works, with illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Philostratus’ life and works * Features the collected works of Philostratus, in both English translation and the original Greek * Concise introductions to the works * Includes translations previously appearing in the Loeb Classical Library editions of Philostratus * Excellent formatting of the texts * Easily locate the sections you want to read with individual contents tables * Includes Philostratus’ rare letters, first time in digital print * Also includes the two ‘Imagines’ by Philostratus’ relatives, Philostratus of Lemnos, and Philostratus the Younger * Provides a special dual English and Greek text, allowing readers to compare the sections paragraph by paragraph — ideal for students * Features a bonus biography — discover Philostratus’ ancient world * Ordering of texts into chronological order and literary genres Please note: there are no translations available in the public domain of 'Gymnasticus' and 'Heroicus' and so they cannot appear in this edition.

An English comic novelist and short story writer, P. G. Wodehouse is best known as the creator of the young bachelor Bertie Wooster and his effortlessly superior manservant Jeeves. Wodehouse penned over 90 books and secured a devoted readership across the world. His first success came as a writer of public school stories, based on his own childhood experiences, most notably introducing the strikingly original character, Psmith. These were followed by light romances, but in 1913, with the publication of the first Blandings Castle novel, ‘Something New’, he turned to farce, which became his preferred genre of work. Wodehouse is celebrated for his scholarly command of the English sentence, blended with vivid, far-fetched imagery and the uproarious slang of the late Edwardian era. His novels feature highly complicated plots and hilarious situations, revealing the hand of a master humorist. This comprehensive eBook offers the most complete edition possible of P. G. Wodehouse, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

The interwar English playwright Noël Coward is best known for his highly polished comedies of manners, including the enduring masterpieces ‘The Vortex’, ‘Hay Fever’, ‘Present Laughter’ and ‘Blithe Spirit’. His plays caught the clipped speech and brittle disillusion of the generation that emerged from the Great War, while his popular songs and revues struck the world-weary note of his times. An indefatigable genius, he performed almost every function in the theatre, including producing, directing, dancing, singing and acting, as well as directing motion pictures. This eBook presents Coward’s collected works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Proclus the Successor was a fifth-century Greek Neoplatonist philosopher and the last major ancient Greek philosopher. He set forth one of the most elaborate and fully developed systems of Neoplatonism. Like Iamblichus, Proclus opposed Christianity and passionately defended paganism. He upheld that thoughts constitute reality, while concrete “things” are mere appearances. Ultimate reality, the “One,” is both God and the Good and unifies his ethical and theological systems. His attitudes significantly influenced the development of theology in both the East and the West.
