DIOMEDES

This article appears in Volume V08, Page 283 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DEM-DIO
DIOMEDES , Latin grammarian, flourished at the end of the 4th
century
  A.D. He was the author of an extant Ars grammatica in three books, dedicated to a certain Atha.nasius. The third
book
  is the most important, as containing extracts from Suetonius's De poetic. Diomedes wrote about the same
time
  as Charisius (q.v.) and used the same sources independently. The works of both grammarians are valuable, but whereas much cf Charisius has been lost, the Ars of Diomedes has come down to us
complete
 . In
book
  i. he treats of the eight parts of speech; in ii. of the elementary ideas of
grammar
  and of
style
 ; in iii. of quantity and metres.
The best edition is in H. Keil's Grammatici
Latini
 , i. ; see also C. von Paucker, Kleinere Studien, i. (1883), on the Latinity of Diomedes.
i Chapters xi. and xii., which Lightfoot suggested might be the
work
  of
Pantaenus
 .
