The cultural category of monster is the key to understanding the "Mirabilia" by Phlegon of Tralles. Applied to Phlegon's 35 marvelous stories, this category allows all his reported cases to be defined as either hybrid creatures, or as beings monstrous in terms of scale, size or multiplicity. In each case corporeality receives the greatest emphasis.
Julia Doroszewska is Assistant Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Silesia, Poland. Her field of interest is the literature of the Roman Empire and more particularly the writings of Phlegon of Tralles.
