Adespota Papyracea Hexametra Graeca: Hexameters of Unknown or Uncertain Authorship from Graeco-roman Egypt

This volume contains editions of a collection of the anonymous hexametrical texts on papyri in the form of a bibliographical catalog, many of which were published in summary form more than a century ago and are no longer available. Also including translations and a short commentary, the book sheds new light on unattributed compositions from Hellenistic, Imperial and Early Byzantime times and their circulation in Graeco-Roman Egypt.
