1640 Leucippe and Clitophon Achilles Tatius Greek Mythology Eroticism Latin
Achilles Tatius was a 2nd-century Greek author who is known only for his single surviving work ‘The Adventures of Leucippe and Clitophon’.

This work also includes a conversation on whether women or young boys make better lovers, certainly controversial for any era.
