Encyclopedia Britannica



HERODIANUS, AELIUS

This article appears in Volume V13, Page 381 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HEG-HIG
HERODIANUS, AELIUS , called b rexvcxos, Alexandrian grammarian, flourished in the 2nd
century
  A.D. He early took up his residence at Rome, where he enjoyed the patronage of Marcus Aurelius (161-18o), to whom he dedicated his
great
  treatise on prosody. This
work
  in twenty-one books (KaDoXLKij irpovw, Sia) included also an account of the etymological
part
  of grammar. The
work
  itself is lost, but several epitomes of it have been preserved. His 'E1rcepcopot dealt with difficult words and
peculiar
  forms in
Homer
 .
Herodianus
  also wrote numerous grammatical
treatises
 , of which only one has come down to us in a complete form (Hepi ovijpovs M sws, on
peculiar
  style), articles on exceptional or anomalous words. Numerous quotations and fragments still exist, chiefly in the Homeric scholiasts and Stephanus of Byzantium.
Herodianus
  enjoyed a
great
  reputation as a grammarian, and Priscian styles him " maximus auctor artis grammaticae."
The best edition is by A. Lentz, Herodiani. Technici religuiae (18671870) ; a supplementary volume is included in Uhling's Corpus grammaticorum Graecorum; for further
bibliographical
  information see W. Christ, Geschichte der griechischen Littratur (1898).
