Antimachus of Colophon AND THE Position of Women in Greek Poetry
E. F. M. BENECKE
A Fragment PRINTED FOR THE USE OF SCHOLARS
LONDON SWAN SONNENSCHEIN & CO., Lim. 1896




The author of the following pages met with his death in Switzerland on July 16th, 1895, in his twenty-sixth year. Had he lived to complete the whole work of which they form part, he might have recast it throughout; and some apology is, perhaps, needed for its appearance in the present form. Several scholars have, however, expressed their opinion that the material contained in the extant fragments might be useful to those engaged in similar studies, and they are accordingly published, in the hope that this may prove to be the case.
