Libanius

4th century AD


Libanius, the Antiochene orator and rhetorician of the fourth century AD, is the poet to whom Paton ascribes the epitaph on the emperor Jovian. Paton's Index of Authors includes the poet among those of Book VII. The scan of Paton's index of authors used here does not give a date for the poet; the date shown is the conventional one.
