This fine book is a great look at the life and teachings of Apollonius- it is partly a critical work, sometimes querying the veracity of Philostratus and other ancient writers and figures, often using secondary works within its analysis- it also contains a full bibliography, although most of the listed texts are in German or French.

Apollonius of Tyana: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This short text by Reville is basically a condensed summation of the life and times of Apollonius, especially with an eye to the pagan revivalism associated with his teachings. Apollonius is often considered either a paganistic copy of Jesus or potentially the basis upon which the Jesus myth was crafted to begin with. A fairly large portion of this work deals with Roman intrigue and of course a majority of it is based on Philostratus' work on the subject.
