, pp.
29-31 and his note 35, adds the names of other writers of dialogues who openly claimed both Fontenelle and Lucian as models.
Amongst others, Bordelon, in his preface to Caractires naturels des hommes, La Haye, 1692, is especially explicit as to his indebtedness, and, in Moliere Comedien aux Champs ilisies, he also imi tated Fontenelle's Jugement de Paris.
