Domitian
Photius, Phlegon, and Virgil
In his Bibliotheca, codex 97, Photius passes under review the Compilation of Olympic Victors and Chronicles by Phlegon of Tralles, a freedman of Hadrian. This work was dedicated by Phlegon to an imperial official, P. Aelius Alcibiades. Neither the official nor the book are mentioned in the Historia Augusta or the extant Byzantine epitomes of Dio Cassius, or indeed in any literary source. The name Aelius, however, might have helped the HA to creat…

Bohemond’s breathing
In the course of her elaborate description ( Alex. 13.10) of the physical and moral qualities of Bohemond, Anna Comnena writes of his nasal and pulmonary makeup thus
The epigrams of Leo the Philosopher
These notes are intended as both compliment and complement to the recent and admirable paper of L.G. Westerink. Leo as scientist and scholar has received his due in modern times, whereas his contribution to the Byzantine epigram tends to be belittled or ignored. Thus Hunger leaves him out of his survey of the genre, even whilst acknowledging the epigrammatic attacks upon him by his own pupil Constantine the Sicilian, whilst Trypanis can do no bet…

The Description of Agamemnon in Digenis Akrites
At 7. 85 in the Grottaferrata version, having described the biblical mosaics in the palace, the poet proceeds to juxtapose pictorial episodes from pagan poetry and history. The first line about Achilles’ campaigns causes no trouble, but the second and third, have provoked much scholarly consternation and conflict
Fulgentius and His Sources
Any late writer who quotes from an alleged Jokebook of Cornelius Tacitus is doomed to incur suspicion, and the culprit Fulgentius has duly met his fate. In the words of one distinguished scholar he was ‘something of a fraud; many of the learned titles he quotes he had certainly never read, many never even existed,’ whilst another characterises his work as ‘a curious mixture of genuine citation and cool forgery, none of it trustworthy without exte…

Sexual Rhetoric in Procopius
Lucian as Social Satirist
This paper owes its inspiration to a remark made by Professor M. Rostovtzeff; in a note in his Social and Economic History of the Roman Empire on the widespread social unrest of the first two centuries A.D., having cited other literary authorities such as Dio Chrysostom, Aelius Aristides, etc., he writes: ‘The social problem as such, the cleavage between the poor and the rich, occupies a prominent place in the dialogues of Lucian; he was fully aw…

Olympiodorus of Thebes
Cet article consacré à Olympiodore de Thèbes, historien et poète, offre une nouvelle analyse de sa carrière, de ses fragments conservés, de son style particulier. Il souligne le caractère abusif de la conception, propre à certains modernes, selon laquelle Olympiodore aurait été une sorte d'espion de charme. Il définit son influence sur Philostorge, chroniqueur des affaires ecclésiastiques

The Epigrams of Lucian
ALL BUT ONE OF THE FIFTY-THREE epigrams ascribed to Lucian derive from the Greek Anthology;' the exception is the first one (On his Own Book), cited by Photius and possessing slight manuscript authority.2 And, as will be seen, the total number of attributed epigrams has been whittled down considerablyby Paton and other commentators on the Anthology.3 Reaction to the merits of these little pieces is entirely subjective. MacLeod, Lucian's most rece…

Nero and His Mother's Corpse
The Career of Corippus
When Joseph Partsch wrote ‘Flavii Cresconii Corippi de vita paucissima comperta habemus’ in the preface (p. xliii) to his long-standard edition ( Monumenta Germaniae Historica , 1879), he was not exaggerating. Yet this has not prevented scholars (including Partsch himself!) from equipping the poet with a career, largely in Constantinople. Most recently, some of the details have been revived (albeit with decent caution) in the admirable edition of…
A Note on Trimalchio’s Zodiac Dish
In their recent article on this subject, Rose and Sullivan suggest that we read: super scorpionem locustam, super sagittarium oculatam, super capricornum caprum et cornutam , etc. This is attractive and can, I suggest, be supported by a further argument. I propose that locustam be regarded as a pun on the celebrated lady poisoner of the period, Locusta. According to Tacitus, she was already infamous by the year 54, and continued to be a valuable …

Hadrian's Farewell to Life
T. D. Barnes has recently impugned the authenticity of these verses and calls for a defence of their genuineness. Although I agree with Fergus Millar that ‘the problem of the Historia Augusta is one into which sane men refrain from entering’,2 yet I think we can at least counter Barnes's objections. Barnes musters four arguments which he naturally calls ‘quite conclusive’. He first points out that the verses are omitted in the epitome of Dio by X…

Studies in Lucian
A book about ancient Greek satirist Lucian in his cultural and historical context. My conclusion is that we need hardly ever look outside the second century for the immediate and personal sources of Lucian's inspiration. -- Barry Baldwin
