I concede your point. :) We have clearly always been interested in telling stories of murder and bigamy and jealousy and etc.

I do think that Victorian sensation literature more closely resembles modern soaps than earlier mythological sources, but I'm all about reading and enjoying All the Things.

The Victorians has the advantage of a slightly closer-to-modern social structure to work with, I'll grant you. But yes, clearly humanity has ever been fond of telling stories about other people's incredibly elaborate misfortunes ;)

Oh if you want ancient Greek soap opera - look up the Greek novels? There's about half a dozen or so, and they're all cheesy soap opera romances. With mistaken identity. And seduction. And pirates.

I quite like Heliodorus' Ethiopian Tale because the female lead is awesome but unfortunately the treatment of Ethiopian characters is... questionable. :/

Oh, cool. I haven't read that one before. :) I will add it to my list. Thanks.
