Chariton

    Chariton, autor pravděpodobně nejstaršího plně dochovaného romantického románu v západní literatuře, psal s citem pro detail a hloubku. Jeho díla, jež se dochovala na starověkých papyrech, jsou ceněna pro svou schopnost vtáhnout čtenáře do světa vášně a dobrodružství. Charitonův styl, charakteristický svým plynulým vyprávěním a propracovanými postavami, jej řadí mezi významné romanopisce starověku. Jeho romány představují klíčový prvek v historii západního literárního žánru.
