Asclepiades, 4th cent. B.C.
Asclepiades, of Tragilus in Thrace, a contemporary and disciple of Isocrates (Phot.
Bibl). He is called a tragic writer, but was more probably a sophist or a grammarian.
He was the author of a work called tragoidoumena, in six books, which treated
on the subjects used by the Greek tragic writers, and on the manner in which they
had dealt with their mythuses (Plut. Vit. X. Orat.; Steph. Byz. s. v. Tragilos;
Athen. x.; Harpocrat. s. v. Dusaules; Hesych. s. v. huesiarchos)
