In this article, the author proposes that the epigram Anthologia Palatina 9.25 was authored by Antipater of Sidon. The author demonstrates that the poem reflects its secondary position within the literary tradition and draws parallels with other epigrams by Antipater of Sidon, displaying a similar imitative method and interest in secondness. This analysis also offers innovative approaches to reading Antipater's other epigrams and sheds new light on his poetics of imitation.
Anthologia Palatina 9.25, an important testimonium for the reception of Aratus' Phaenomena, is either ascribed to Leonidas of Tarentum or Antipater in the manuscript tradition. In this article, I propose that the epigram was authored by Antipater of Sidon. First, I demonstrate that the poem, which-as I suggest-is modeled on Callimachus 56 HE (Epigr. 27 Pf.), self-consciously reflects its own secondary position within the literary tradition. Secondly, I show that this interest in epigonism is closely paralleled by epigrams authored by Antipater of Sidon, which exhibit both a similar imitative method and an interest in secondness. In so doing, my analysis also suggests innovative approaches for the readings of several of Antipater's epigrams and sheds new light on his poetics of imitation more generally.
