Battles of Alexander's Successors After Alexander died of some mysterious illness or poison at Babylon in June 323 BC, the bodyguards summoned his principal friends and officers. Perdiccas placed on the empty throne the ring Alexander had given him while dying and suggested they wait to see if the pregnant Roxane would give birth to a son who could be king, but Ptolemy and others disliked being ruled by the son of an Asian mother. The general Meleager objected to being ruled by Perdiccas in a regency and walked out to join disgruntled soldiers. To avoid civil war, someone suggested Philip 's son Arrhidaeus could be king as Philip III, and though considered retarded, he had enough presence to prevent imminent fighting; it was agreed that Meleager would be a third general after Craterus and Perdiccas. A barbaric Macedonian ritual was arranged in which a dog was cut in two, and the army was supposedly purified. At the urging of Perdiccas though, Philip III allowed 300 men, who had instigated the discord with Meleager, to be trampled to death by the elephants, and Meleager was later murdered in a temple. It was decided that the king would hold supreme power with Ptolemy satrap in Egypt and Libya, Leomodon in Syria, Philotas in Cilicia, Antigonus in Lycia and greater Phrygia, Cassander in Caria, Menander in Lydia, Leonnatus in western Phrygia, Eumenes in Cappadocia, Pithon in Media, Lysimachus in Thrace, and the eastern provinces were to stay the same. Perdiccas was to command the army for the king. Alexander's body in an elaborate funeral procession was headed for Macedonia, but in Damascus it was diverted to Egypt by Ptolemy.

26. Menander - Crystalinks menander (342291 BC), Greek dramatist, the chief representative of the New Comedy, was born in Athens. He was the son of wellto-do parents; http://www.crystalinks.com/menander.html

MENANDER Menander (342­291 BC), Greek dramatist, the chief representative of the New Comedy, was born in Athens. He was the son of well-to-do parents; his father Diopeithes is identified by some with the Athenian general and governor of the Thracian Chersonese known from the speech of Demosthenes De Chersoneso. He doubtless derived his taste for the comic drama from his uncle Alexis. He was the friend, associate, and perhaps pupil of Theophrastus, and was on intimate terms with Demetrius of Phalerum. He also enjoyed the patronage of Ptolemy Soter, the son of Lagus, who invited him to his court. But Menander, preferring the independence of his villa in the Peiraeus and the company of his mistress Glycera, refused. According to the note of a scholiast on the Ibis of Ovid, he was drowned while bathing, and his countrymen built him a tomb on the road leading to Athens, where it was seen by Pausanias. A well-known statue in the Vatican, formerly thought to represent Marius, is now generally supposed to be Menander, although some archaeologists dispute this, and it has also been identified with his statue in the theatre at Athens, also mentioned by Pausanias. Menander was the author of more than a hundred comedies, but only won the prize at Lenaia eight times. His rival in dramatic art (and in the affections of Glycera) was Philemon, who appears to have been more popular. Menander, however, believed himself to be the better dramatist, and, according to Aulus Gellius, used to ask Philemon: "Don't you feel ashamed whenever you gain a victory over me?" According to Caecilius of Calacte (Porphyry in Eusebius, Praeparatio evangelica) Menander was guilty of plagiarism, his The Superstitious Man being taken from The Augur of Antiphanes.

You are here: Experts Homework Help Latin Language Latin Topic: Latin Expert: Maria Date: Subject: Menander quote Question I have been reading about the differing quotes attributed to Ceasar, and am a bit confused. I was told that "Alea iacta est" can mean both "The die is cast" and "Let the dice fly high". But someone else told me that "Let the dice fly high" would be "Volent aleae!". Which one is correct for "Let the dice fly high"? Thank you so much. Answer Hello, first of all "Alea iacta est" does not mean both "The die is cast" and "Let the dice fly high". In fact the Latin "Iacta alea est"(or "Alea iacta est"), which according to Suetonius was said by Julius Caesar when he crossed the Rubicon in 49 BC, means only "The die is cast" or "The die has been thrown".

This man has lived here a reasonably long time and has gladly talked in his life to no one, has spoken first to no one Pan. And he immediately regrets it, I'm sure. Anyhow, with a character like this, he still got married. His wife was a widow whose first husband had just died and left her with a son who was very small then. He fought with her not only every day all day but took up the better part of the night as well even worse. When things were so bad that nothing more could happen, and his life was bitter, pain upon pain, his wife left him and went back to live with her son, the one from her first marriage. He had a little farm, very small, here his mother, himself, and a single faithful servant whom he inherited from his father. A fine young man the boy is already, with a mind beyond his years:

Menander for Kids - the Greek playwright Menander (This painting was done much later, in the Roman period, by someone who had never seen Menander) Menander is the only playwright from the Hellenistic period whose plays survive. Actually only one play, the Dyskolos, survives, and a lot of fragments. Even the Dyskolos was unknown until about thirty years ago, when archaeologists found a copy of it on some old papyri in Egypt Like Aristophanes, Menander wrote comedies (funny plays). Most of his plays were a lot like sit-coms or chick flicks today - boy meets girl, then there's some kind of problem (usually their parents don't want them to marry), and then in the end something happens so that they do get married. Menander is the first person we know of who wrote this kind of story. Later writers like Shakespeare used his plots, and so do modern TV writers. To find out more about Menander, check out these books from Amazon.com or from your library: Greek Theatre , by Stewart Ross (1999). For kids.

34. Menander (Rhetorician) - LoveToKnow 1911 menander, of Laodicea on the Lycus, Greek rhetorician and commentator. Two incomplete treatises on epideictic (or show) speeches have been preserved under http://www.1911encyclopedia.org/Menander_(Rhetorician)

Menander (Rhetorician) From LoveToKnow 1911 MENANDER of Laodicea on the Lycus, Greek rhetorician and commentator. Two incomplete treatises on epideictic (or show) speeches have been preserved under his name, but it is generally considered that they cannot be by the same author. Bursian attributes the first to Menander, whom he placed in the 4th century, and the second to an anonymous rhetorician of Alexandria Troas , who possibly lived in the time of Diocletian . Others, from the superscription of the Paris MS., assign the first to Genethlius of Petrae in Palestine . In view of the general tradition of antiquity, that both treatises were the work of Menander, it is possible that the author of the second was not identical with the Menander mentioned by SuIdas, since the name is of frequent occurrence in later Greek literature . The first treatise, entitled OLaipEcts TWV brLSELKTLKWP, discusses the different kinds of epideictic speeches; the second, 'WI i rt5ELKTLKi V, has special titles for each chapter. Text in L.

For more information on Menander's life and career, see CMLC, Volume 9. INTRODUCTION Discovered in a private collection in Geneva in 1957 and published for the first time two years later, the Dyskolos (sometimes translated as The Grouch or The Dour Man ) is the only nearly complete play by Menander now extant. It is also the only surviving almost complete New Comedy, and the earliest known play involving the motif of love at first sight. It is invaluable for what it reveals about the evolution of Greek theater, which, based on the Dyskolos and other fragments, changed from a vibrant forum for a wide range of political expression into drama that ignored politics, concentrating instead on family relationships in everyday domestic situations. Menander's comedies and their adaptations by the Roman writers Plautus and Terence also greatly influenced European Renaissance comedies. Biographical Information Menander was born in the village of Kephisia around 342-41 b.c. to Diopeithes and Hegestrate. His first known production was the

Home Ancient Theatre Medieval Theatre 16th Century ... 20th Century MENANDER This biography was originally published in A New General Biographical Dictionary. Hugh James Rose. London, 1857. p. 89. MENANDER, the most celebrated of the Greek comic poets, was born at Athens B.C. 341. His father's name was Diopithes; and his master in philosophy was Theophrastus, according to the testimony of Pamphila. He is considered as the introducer of the New Comedy , which refined upon the grossness and licence of the old, and banished living and real characters from the stage. The title of the poet of nature was certainly his due, according to the exclamation of Aristophanes the grammarian, "O Menander and Nature, which of you copied from the workmanship of the other?" Quintilian gives him the fullest praise for his strength and consistency in the display of the characters of his dramas; and Ovid dwells upon the same merit, in enumerating this poet among those whose fame would be immortal.

Ancient Greek Menander is the only Yavana (person of Greek origin in Indian language) king who has become celebrated in ancient Indian literature. He is known as `Milinda' who had his capital at Sakala (modern Sialkot in Pakistan, Euthymedia in Greek). He one of the two leading characters of a Pali (ancient language of India) treatise Milindpanha (Questions of Milinda). This book describes fundamental principles of Buddhist philosophy which is narrated in form of a dialogue between King Milinda and Buddhist scholar Nagasena. Thus Menander is well known for Indian historians as a philosopher with superior knowledge in various schools of thought and not as a mighty conqueror. He was born at Charikar, a country between Kabul and Panjshir rivers, a connecting link between Bactria and India. Source: med.unc.edu
