This book is a commentary on the Pythagorean Golden Verses, a neglected, but once very popular poem of the Hellenistic period.

Lucian's Alexander the False Prophet is the only literary testimony to a highly influential cult of the 'New Asclepios Glycon' which, as archaeological evidence continues to document, spread all over the eastern Mediterranean basin throughout the second and third centuries AD.
