Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems Apollonius, the scholar and rival of Callimachus, was a native of Alexandria, born under the reign of Ptolemy Philadelphus, king of Egypt, near 300 years before Christ. He was distinguished by the name of Rhodius, either from the name of his mother Rhoda, or from having taught rhetoric at Rhodes: upon his return from thence to Alexandria, he was appointed by Ptolemy Evergetes to succeed Eratosthenes in the care of the public library. He was buried in the same tomb with Callimachus. The subject of Apollonius´s Argonautics is one of the most remarkable in all antiquity: - The expedition of the Golden Fleece, undertaken about 30 years before the Trojan War.
