I’m working on a literature question and need support to help me learn.

Analyze the relationship between Encolpius and Giton from the point of view of eros and nosos.

Consider the power dynamic between the two: Are there any moments of the sort of ‘sexual symmetry’ that D. Konstan sees as a through line of the two ideal Greek novels we’ve read?

If their love is unequal (‘asymmetrical’), is the balance of power always tilted in favor of one of the protagonists or does it shift back and forth between the two? 

Cite section numbers (e.g., §66) for your three examples.
