Abstract
Timotheus' Persae presents an extraordinarily rich and diverse array of poetic and cultural thinking which invites a range of questions about meaning, interpretation, and audience response. This text's diverse indebtedness to fifth-century literary culture (not only lyric, tragedy, and comedy, but also sophistic rhetoric) invites serious scrutiny, and, in recent scholarship is finally receiving some deserved attention. I
here set out some of my own interpretations of and responses to Timotheus' dazzling and at times perplexing literary talent.
