Rufinus: The Epigrams of Rufinus Paperback / softback
by Rufinus
Edited by Denys Page
Part of the Cambridge Classical Texts and Commentaries series
Paperback / softback
Description
Nothing is known of the Greek poet Rufinus other than that he was the author of a collection of thirty-nine epigrams.
In fact he is such an insubstantial figure that his date has been placed at various points within nearly half a millennium.
Professor Page here presents a text of Rufinus' poems and a concise commentary on them.
In his introduction he considers the criteria by which a date may be established and finds evidence in favour of the fourth century AD.
