Lucian's Dialogues of the Heterae (also known as Mimes of the Courtesans and Dialogue of the Courtesans) is a series of dialogues in the life of courtesans. They predate the whore dialogues of Renaissance literature by centuries. In its current edition, they have been collected in Penguin's Chattering Courtesans and Other Sardonic Sketches, which also features his True Histories.
