This volume aims to broaden our understanding of the related genres of parables  fables  and
similes in the Graeco-Roman world. These genres  which make use of narrative analogy  appear in
early Christian and ancient Jewish literatures and in various Graeco-Roman sources. However 
despite the fact that these texts were part of the wider cultural context of Graeco-Roman
antiquity  they have not yet been thoroughly studied in relation to each other. The present
volume brings together contributions on a range of Graeco-Roman  Jewish  and Christian sources
so as to contribute to the study of parables  fables  and similes across disciplinary
boundaries. The contributions highlight the fluid boundaries between these different genres 
but also demonstrate how their adoption and adaption in different literary works give
expression to the distinct identities of the composers.
