Description
The periegetic didactic poem by Dionysius of Alexandria (2nd century AD) was required reading in geography classes since late antiquity. In his commentary to this work, Eustathios of Thessaloniki demonstrates his great erudition, introducing readers to classical literature beyond geography and thus providing a fascinating insight into the demands of the Byzantine education system.
