Greek fiction - History and criticism - Early works to 1800

No story like a true story. A Grecian story told by the observator to Roger and Joan in the Chimney-corner, about the ungreatful treatment that aristides, the noble Grecian patriot and general, met with from his country, not, notwithstanding his many victories, and the speedy occasion they had to repent it, and restore aristides to his former post. London, January 5. 1712
