Agathyllus
(102 words)
[German version] (Ἀγάθυλλος;
Agáthyllos). A Hellenistic writer of elegies, from Arcadia; Dion. Hal. 1,49,1 (= SH 15) has transmitted somewhat more than three of his verses. According to the version of the myth discernible here, Aeneas stops in Arcadia on his journey from Troy before reaching ‘Hesperia’, where he fathers Romulus. A. is also quoted as the source for the tradition, going back to Hegesianax of Alexandria (FGrH 45 F 9-10), of Rome's founding by Ῥῶμος (= Remus), who in this tradition is, like Romulus, a son of Aeneas (Dion. Hal. 1,72,1 = SH 16). Di Marco, Massimo (Fondi Latina)

(87 words)
[German version] (Παρμένων;

incipit of a hymn to the Nile are particularly expressive; the latter has a catalogue of the inhabitants of various northern Egyptian towns (SH 604 A). It has been assumed that his poetry was influenced by the Cynics [1]. Di Marco, Massimo (Fondi Latina) Bibliography

Érōtes ḕ kaloí/'Amours, or the Fair Youths'; fr. 1-6 Powell) which recounted the homosexual liaisons of gods and mythical heroes. The poem resembled a register (Catalogue) similar to Hesiod’s
Catalogue of Women (Hesiodus). P. is probably also influenced by the
Leontion of Hermesianax, with whom he shares a penchant for placing adjectives and nouns forming a juncture before the caesura and at the end of the pentameter, respectively. The longest fragment (1 Powell) contai…
