For the Stoic philosopher of the same name Apollonius of Tyre philosopher Apollonius of Tyre is the subject of an ancient short novella, popular during medieval times. Existing in numerous forms in many languages, the text is thought to be translated from an ancient Greek manuscript, now lost. Plot summary In most versions, the eponymous hero is hunted and persecuted after he reveals a king s incestuous relationship with his daughter. After many travels and adventures, in which Apollonius loses both his wife and his daughter and thinks them both dead, he is eventually reunited with his family through unlikely circumstances or intercession by gods. Some English versions have a recognition plot where Apollonius is shipwrecked and becomes a tutor to a princess who falls in love with him, and the good king gradually discovers his daughter s wishes. The major themes are the punishment of inappropriate lust&mdash the incestuous king invariably comes to a bad end&mdash and the ultimate rewards of love and fidelity. Origins Latin and Greek?
