PALAEMON, QUINTUS REMMIUS

This article appears in Volume V20, Page 524 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAI-PAS
PALAEMON, QUINTUS REMMIUS , Roman grammarian, a native of Vicentia, lived in the reigns of Tiberius and
Claudius
 . From Suetonius (De grammaticis, 23) we learn that he was originally a slave who obtained his freedom and taught grammar at Rome. Though a man of profligate and arrogant character, he enjoyed a
great
  reputation as a teacher; Quintilian and Persius are said to have been his pupils. His lost Ars (Juvenal, vii. 215), a
system
  of grammar much used in his own time and largely
drawn
  upon by later grammarians, contained rules for correct diction, illustrative quotations and treated of barbarisms and solecisms (Juvenal vi. 452). An extant Ars grammatica (discovered by Jovianus Pontanus in the 15th
century
 ) _and
other unimportant
treatises
  on similar subjects have been wrongly ascribed to him.
See C. Marschall, De Remmii Palaemonis libris grammaticis (1887); " Latin Grammar in the First
Century
  " by H.
Nettleship
  in
Journal
  of Philology, vol. xv. (1886) ; J. E. Sandys, Hist. of Classical Scholarship (2nd ed., 1906).
