Nothing is known of the Greek poet Rufinus other than that he was
the author of a collection of thirty-nine epigrams. In fact he is
such an insubstantial figure that his date has been placed at
various points within nearly half a millennium. Professor Page here
presents a text of Rufinus' poems and a concise commentary on them.
In his introduction he considers the criteria by which a date may
be established and finds evidence in favour of the fourth century
AD.
