Nothing of his rhetorical works has survived except some of their titles in the Suda . Pollux was the author of the Onomasticon, a Greek thesaurus or dictionary of Attic synonyms and phrases, arranged not alphabetically but according to subject matter, in ten books. It supplies in passing much rare and valuable information on many points of classical antiquity&mdash objects in daily life, the theater, politics&mdash and quotes numerous fragments of lost works. Pollux was probably the person satirized by Lucian as a worthless and ignorant person who gains a reputation as an orator by sheer effrontery, and pilloried in his Lexiphanes , a satire upon the affectation of obscure and obsolete words. A first Latin translation, published at Venice in 1502, made Julius Pollux more available to Renaissance Antiquary antiquaries and scholars, and anatomists, who adopted obscure Greek words for parts of the body.

Floyer Sydenham 1710 &ndash 1 April 1787 was an English people English scholar of Ancient Greek . He was a Fellow and sometime Moderator of Philosophy at Wadham College, Oxford , and later Rector of Esher . He translated some of the Dialogues of Plato into English, and wrote a dissertation on Heraclitus , which failed of being appreciated. Involved in embarrassment, he was thrown into prison because he could not pay a small bill for provisions, and there died. His sad fate led directly to the foundation of the Royal Literary Fund . The translator Thomas Taylor neoplatonist Thomas Taylor wrote a widely published panegyric to Sydenham, and completed his work on the Dialogues. Catherine, sister of John Floyer, married Humphrey Sydenham, of Dulverton, and became the mother of Floyer Sydenham, a man of great attainments, Fellow and sometime Moderator of Philosophy at Wadham College, Oxford. He was afterwards Rector of Esher until 1744. He published Notes on Plato, edited the Greater and Lesser Hippias also a Dissertation on the Doctrine of Heraclitus, and Onomasticon Theologicum. He was so small a gainer in money by these works that he died in great poverty. The sympathy aroused for poor authors by his death led to the formation of the Literary Fund. His grandfather, Humphrey Sydenham, was one of the original Fellows of Wadham College, and the first to take the degree of Master of Arts from that college. ref John Kestell Floyer http freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com floyer annals.htm Annals of the Family of Floyer , Transactions of the Devonshire Association for the Advancement of Science, Literature, and Art , 1898. ref References Reflist External links http www.uslegacies.org geds getperson.php?personID I074&tree sandberg sources Brief biography at uslegacies.org http www.rlf.org.uk index.cfm Royal Literary Fund worldcat id lccn n79 54709 Nuttall Persondata Metadata see Wikipedia Persondata .
