This study of Philostratus , first published in 1986, presents the Greek biographer's treatment of both sophists and holy men in the social and intellectual life of the early Roman Empire, which also displays his own distinctive literary personality as a superficial dilettante and an engrossing snob. It produces new evidence which supports Philostratus' credibility, but it also extends the charges of ignorance and bias in his handling of fellow-sophists.
