This is a study of how Greek and Latin writers describe curious, meddlesome, and exaggerated behavior. Founded on a family of Greek terms, and the Latin words used to describe them, Leigh surveys how they were used in Greek literature from the 5th and 4th centuries BC and their Latin usage in relation to Hellenistic and imperial Greek.
