Pre-Hellenistic poets – the influence of Archaic and Classical poets on later Greek poetry
Latin Poets – focusing on their connections with post-classical Greek poetry
History – focusing on the Hellenistic Period and Empire (under construction)
Epigrammatists – spanning the Hellenistic period and the Empire
Publications 2006-2010 – all recent publications listed by year, with index terms
Additions – publications added to the database after 15th January 2011

What’s New?
Ca. 400 items have been added between July 2010 and January 2011. In July 2010 the bibliography moved from Leiden University to Google Sites and new sections were added for Additions, Eratosthenes, Leonidas of Tarentum, Menander (limited coverage), Nossis, Sotades, and Simonides; the separate review records for Apollonius were removed. Some of the History files have not (yet) been regenerated.

Credits

The creation of the Hellenistic Bibliography was facilitated by a grant of the Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (NWO). From 1997 until 2009 the bibliography was hosted by Leiden University. It is currently supported by the School of Histories and Humanities at Trinity College Dublin. I am very grateful to all who have sent me notifications and offprints of publications over the years. Special thanks are due to Enrico Magnelli (University of Florence), whose additions have greatly improved numerous pages.
