had been abducted. By saving everyone as the bull of his herd, Dorcon simultaneously becomes a bucolic hero, as well as retaining his status as a bestial figure. The set of pipes given to Chloe, will later on in the novel support her growing status of a woman losing her voice to society's violence, adding to the tension between rural and urban influences. After Dorcon's death, Lykainion (little she-wolf) enters the narrative as an urban and female equivalent of Dorcon, pressuring Daphnis' chastity. References Sources Epstein, S. (1995).
