Cratinus Junior
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Cratinus the Younger (4th century BC) was a comic poet of the Middle Comedy, and was a contemporary of Plato[1] and of Corydus.[2] He flourished in the middle of 4th century BC, and as late as 324 BC.[3] Some scholars believe that he even lived into the reign of Ptolemy II Philadelphus.
Nine titles of his plays have survived:
- Bouseris ("Busiris")
- Gigantes ("The Giants")
- Theramenes (Theramenes")
- Omphale ("Omphale")
- Pythagorizousa ("Female Pythagorean")
- Tarantinoi ("Men From Tarentum")
- Titanes ("Titans")
- Cheiron ("Chiron")
- Pseudypobolimaios ("The False Changeling")
Many fragments ascribed to Cratinus were probably by Cratinus the Younger.
