About
We learn from ancient sources that the grammarian Timachidas of Lindos (Rhodes; 2nd/1st century BCE) dealt with linguistic issues ('glossai', 'Dinner Party') and commented on poetic works of Classical (Euripides' 'Medea', Aristophanes' 'Frogs') and early Hellenistic period (Menander's 'Kolax', Eratosthenes' 'Hermes'). The attractive hypothesis of identifying him with the Timachidas who compiled the 'Lindian Chronicle' (99 BCE) is deeply discussed - and cautiously dismissed - by Ivan Matijasic in this volume, in the framework of his introduction to, critical edition and English translation of, and commentary on the above-mentioned grammatical fragments, with extensive bibliography and indexes.
