Excerpt from The Complete Poems of Meleager of GadaraCollection of verse taken from the writings of his pre decessors, and chosen, because of their merits as literature. With judicious skill he confined himself to the epigram, a short piece of verse written in the elegiac metre on a definite subject, and does not quote from any poet who was actually his contemporary. With these two re strictions his range remains a very wide one, and his own taste would appear to be both catholic and generous. As the names in the poem show, he ranges from Sappho in the sixth century b'.c. To Antipater of Sidon, who died about 100 b.c and even if he is somewhat inclined to favour the Alexandrians he has still a full appreciation of such a typical Athenian as Simonides. But it is noticeable that in the epigram form no poet, not even Sappho or Callimachus, can equal Meleager himself, and the retention of the eight hundred lines of his which we still possess is the chief merit of the later editors of the Anthology. Otherwise the changes they introduced into Meleager's original collection seem to have been all for the worse. Meleager followed an alphabetical arrange ment and so secured variety, the first essential in an anthology: our present collection is arranged rather tediously by subjects, with a tendency for poems by the same author to come together. Again, Meleager based his choice purely on literary grounds, and such stuff as the poems of Diogenes Laertius - in the Opinion of Mr. W. R. Paton the worst verses ever published - and the tedious outpourings of St. Gregory would never have found a place with him. He is above all an artist, and the methods of his criticism, as revealed in the Proem.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
