Welcome to the Hellenistic Bibliography – a bibliography on post-classical Greek poetry and its influence

The pages on this site were compiled from a database containing ca. 20,500 records, last systematically updated in July 2012 (Apollonius of Rhodes updated August 2019). It is organised in the following sections:

• Hellenistic Poets – active between ca. 323 and 31 BCE

• Imperial Greek Poets – active between ca. 31 BCE and the 6th century CE

• Epigrammatists – spanning from the 4th century BCE to the Byzantine age

• Pre-Hellenistic poets – the influence of Archaic and Classical poets on later Greek poetry

• Latin Poets – focusing on their connections with post-classical Greek poetry

• History – currently limited to Alexander the Great
