| Summary | "Λουκιανός - Άπαντα, Τόμος Δεύτερος" by Samosata Lucian is a collection of dialogues written in the early 2nd century AD. This compilation features a series of satirical conversations that touch upon themes of mythology and human nature, showcasing the humorous and critical style characteristic of Lucian's work. The main focus appears to be on the interactions among divine figures, particularly the gods of the sea, along with commentary on social issues and personal relationships. The opening of this volume features a dialogue among various sea deities, including Doris and Galatea, who discuss the merits of Galatea's suitor, the Cyclops Polyphemus. The dialogue reveals Lucian's sharp wit and comedic disdain for the characters’ absurdities. Throughout this opening section, themes such as beauty, desire, and rivalry are explored in a lighthearted manner, establishing a tone that suggests the work will both entertain and provoke thought about the follies of gods and mortals alike.
