Anthologia Palatina, also known as Palatine Anthology, is a collection of Greek poetry compiled by Constantine Cephalas in the early 10th century. Based on the anthologies compiled by Meleager in the 1st century BC, Philip in the 1st century, and Agathias in the 6th century, it is a compilation of about 4,000 poems organized into 15 volumes by theme, with some new works added. Most of the poems are short elegiac epigrams, and many of them are excellent love poems, dedications, epitaphs, didactic poems, banquet songs, and satirical poems. The main authors of the poems are Simonides, Bachylides, Anacreon, and the philosopher Plato in the classical period, and Asclepiades, Leonidas, Callimachus, Antipater, Meleager, the female poets Anytes and Nossis, the physician Nicias, and the philosopher Philodemus in the Hellenistic period. In the 14th century, a collection of texts revised by Planudes was in circulation, but in 1606 an old copy of Cephalas' work was discovered in the library of the Elector of the Palatinate (Palatinate) in Heidelberg, and today this copy, together with the selection by Planudes, is considered the definitive edition.
