[Philologie]
The Greek classics were the subject of numerous works, including grammars (Manuel Moschopoulos's Questions and Answers, Thomas Magister's Attic Nouns and Verbs), orthographies (Johannes Harax, Theognostos), dictionaries (Photius and the so-called Suidas or Suda), as well as revisions and commentaries on the classics (Johannes Tsetses and Eustathius of Thessaloniki's works on Homer, and Planudes's works on Hesiod, Euripides, Sophocles, and Aristophanes), and excerpts (Photius's Thousand Books and the Palatine Anthology, a collection of Greek epigrams compiled in Constantinople at the end of the 10th century, covering the 1st century BCE to the Byzantine period).
[literature]
Examples of so-called literary works in verse and prose (although the boundary between the two was not always consciously recognized) include epic poems such as the Tales of Dionysus by Nonnos (5th century), which was based on mythology, the Antehomerica, Homerica and Posthomerica by Iōannēs Tzetzēs (after 1110-after 1180), the Hymn to Heraclius by Georgios Pisidēs (?-631 or 634), which was based on historical fact, and the verse chronicle by Konstantinos Manassēs (c. 1130-87). In the field of romance, the fantastical love romances that followed the style of Achilles Tatios and Heliodorus in late antiquity and suddenly blossomed in the 12th century include Aristandros and Kallithea by Constantine Manasses in 15-12 syllable verse, Rodante and Dosikles by Theodōros Prodromos (12th century), Drosilla and Charicles by Niketas Eugenianos (12th century), and Hysmine and Hysminias by Eumathios Makrembolitēs (late 12th century) in prose form.
