Aristarchus or Aristarch of Tegea was a contemporary of Sophocles and Euripides , who lived to be a centenarian, composed seventy pieces and won two tragic victories. Only the titles of three of his plays Achilles , Asclepius , and Tantalus with a single line of the text, have come down to us, though Ennius freely borrowed from his play about Achilles .

Misenus was a character in Virgil s epic poem the Aeneid . He was a brother in arms of Hector and, after Hector s death, Aeneas Aeneas trumpeter. In Book VI, it is revealed that he had challenged the gods to a musical contest on the conch shell, and for his impudence was drowned by Triton mythology Triton . Aeneas was told by the Cumaean Sibyl at that time that Misenus s body had to be buried before he could enter the Underworld. ref Aeneid VI ref The passage detailing the funeral rites gives a valuable insight into Roman burial customs and the importance the Romans placed on respect for the dead.

His name has been immortalized by Horace , who dedicated to him two of his Epistles i. 3 i . 2 , from which it would appear that he composed lyrics of a light, agreeable kind. The statement of Pomponius Porphyrion , the old commentator on Horace, that Florus himself wrote satire s, is probably erroneous, but he may have edited selections from the earlier satirists Ennius , Lucilius , Marcus Terentius Varro Varro . Nothing is definitely known of his personality, except that he was one of the young men who accompanied Tiberius on his mission to settle the affairs of Armenia .

Refimprove date August 2008 The history of Latin poetry can be understood as the adaptation of Greek models. The verse comedies of Plautus are the earliest Latin literature that has survived, composed around 205 184 BC, yet the start of Latin literature is conventionally dated to the first performance of a play in verse by a Greek slave, Livius Andronicus , at Rome in 240 BC. Livius translated Greek New Comedy for Roman audiences, using meters that were basically those of Greek drama, modified to the needs of Latin. His successors Plautus and Terence further refined the borrowings from the Greek stage and the prosody of their verse is substantially the same as for classical Latin verse. ref R.H.Martin, Terence Adelphoe , Cambridge University Press 1976 , pages 1 and 32 ref The traditional meter of Greek epic, the dactylic hexameter, was introduced into Latin literature by Ennius 239 169 BC , virtually a contemporary of Livius, who substituted it for the jerky Saturnian meter in which Livius had been composing epic verses. Ennius moulded a poetic diction and style suited to the imported hexameter, providing a model for classical poets such as Virgil and Ovid . ref P.G.McBrown, The First Roman Literature in The Oxford History of the Classical World , J.Boardman, J.Griffin and O.Murray eds , Oxford University Press 1995 page 450 52 ref The late republic saw the emergence of Neoteric Poets , notably Catullus emdash rich young men from the Italian provinces, conscious of metropolitan sophistication, and looking to the scholarly Alexandrian period Alexandrian poet Callimachus for inspiration. ref Robin Nisbet, The Poets of the Late Republic in in The Oxford History of the Classical World , J.Boardman, J.Griffin and O.Murray eds , Oxford University Press 1995 page 487 90 ref Catullus shared the Alexandrian s preference for short poems and wrote within a variety of meters borrowed from Greece, including Aeolic verse Aeolian forms such as hendecasyllabic verse , the Sapphic ... more details
The Latin Anthology is the appellation bestowed upon a collection of fugitive Latin poetry Latin verse , from the age of Ennius to about 1000, formed by Pieter Burmann the Younger . Nothing corresponding to the Greek Anthology is known to have existed among the Romans, though professional epigram matists like Martial published their volumes on their own account, and detached sayings were excerpted from authors like Ennius and Publius Syrus , while the Priape a were probably but one among many collections on special subjects. The first general collection of scattered pieces made by a modern scholar was Scaliger s Catalecta veterum Poetarum 1573 , succeeded by the more ample one of Pithoeus , Epigrammata et Poemata e Codicibus et Lapidibus collecta 1590 . Numerous additions, principally from inscriptions , continued to be made, and in 1759 1773 Burmann digested the whole into his Anthologia veterum Latinorum Epigrammatum et Poematum . This, occasionally reprinted, was the standard edition until 1869, when Alexander Riese commenced a new and more critical recension, from which many pieces improperly inserted by Burmann are rejected, and his classified arrangement is discarded for one according to the sources whence the poems have been derived. The first volume contains those found in MSS., in the order of the importance of these documents those furnished by inscriptions following. The first volume in two parts appeared in 1869 1870, a second edition of the first part in 1894, and the second volume, Carmina Epigraphica in two parts , in 1895 1897, edited by F. B cheler. An Anthologiae Latinae Supplementa , in the same series, followed. Having been formed by scholars actuated by no aesthetic principles of selection, but solely intent on preserving everything they could find, the Latin anthology is much more heterogeneous than the Greek, and unspeakably inferior.

Origines Origins is the title of a historical work by Marcus Porcius Cato, commonly known as Cato the Elder . Origines no longer survives as a complete text, but substantial fragments are known because they were quoted by later Latin authors. This highly original work was the first prose history in Latin literature Latin , and among the very first Latin prose works in any genre. Along with Livius Andronicus , Gnaeus Naevius Naevius , Ennius and Plautus , Cato helped to found a new literature. According to Cato s biographer Cornelius Nepos , the Origines consisted of seven books. Book I is the history of the early kings of Rome books II and III the beginnings of each Italian city. This seems to be why the whole work is called Origines . ref Cornelius Nepos, Life of Cato 3. ref The city histories in books II and III of the work were apparently treated on an individual basis, drawing on their own local traditions. ref Harv Cornell 1972 . ref The last four books dealt with Rome s later wars and the growth in the city s power they outweighed the rest , according to one later reader. ref Sextus Pompeius Festus Festus , On the Meanings of Words p. 198 M. ref There were two existing historical works in Latin, by Naevius and Ennius, but they were in verse, not prose.
