    In The DeipnosophistsAthenaeus describes a series of dinner parties at which the guests quote extensively from Greek literature. The work (which dates to the very end of the second century CE) is amusing reading and of extraordinary value as a treasury of quotations from works now lost. Athenaeus also preserves a wide range of information about different cuisines and foodstuffs; the music and entertainments that ornamented banquets; and the intellectual talk that was the heart of Greek conviviality.
    This Loeb Classical Library edition is in seven volumes.

The editors provide substantive introductions as well as essential critical and explanatory notes and selective bibliographies.
