Brother of the better known scholar K.W. Dindorf, Ludwig collaborated with him for nearly thirty years on an edition of Robert Estienne's Thesaurus linguae graecae, and published on several Greek historians, but led such a reclusive life that his name was sometimes thought to be a pseudonym. Many of the authors in this edition are classed as 'minor' largely because so little of their output has survived, usually as citations in later Byzantine works. Volume 1 contains fragments of the works of Nicolaus Damascenus (born c.64 BCE, who wrote a history of the world in 144 volumes, scientific works, and biographies of his personal friend Herod the Great and Augustus), Dexippus, Priscus, Eustathius of Epiphania, and Olympiodorus of Thebes, among others.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePraefatio\u003cbr\u003e Collatio codicum monacensium\u003cbr\u003e Nicolaus Damascenus\u003cbr\u003e Pausanias Damascenus\u003cbr\u003e Dexippus\u003cbr\u003e Eusebius\u003cbr\u003e Eunapius\u003cbr\u003e Priscus\u003cbr\u003e Eustathius Epiphaniensis\u003cbr\u003e Nestorianus\u003cbr\u003e Magnus et Eutychianus\u003cbr\u003e Ioannes Epiphaniensis\u003cbr\u003e Malchus\u003cbr\u003e Petrus\u003cbr\u003e Praxagoras\u003cbr\u003e Candidus\u003cbr\u003e Theophanes Byzantius\u003cbr\u003e Olympiodorus\u003cbr\u003e Nonnosus\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Ancient history: to c 500 CE [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Ancient history: to c 500 CE\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Ancient%20history:%20to%20c%20500%20CE%20%5BHBLA%5D%22\"\u003eHBLA\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266213531928,"sku":"9781108083546","price":40.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108083546i_e57686c2-ee5a-497c-bd50-20935463a633.jpg?v=1696751864","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/historici-graeci-minores-paperback-9781108083546","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
