Apion
Apion ((ギリシア語:Ἀπίων); 30-20 BC – c. AD 45-48〔Adler, ''et al''. (Eds.) Jewish Encyclopedia (1906), retrieved from JewishEncyclopedia.com, "Apion."〕), also known as Plistonices,〔Aulus Gellius. 'Attic Nights' Book V, XIV(1)〕 a Hellenized Egyptian〔David Dawson, ''Allegorical Readers and Cultural Revision in Ancient Alexandria By David Dawson'', (University of California Press, 1992), 117.〕 grammarian, sophist and commentator on Homer, was born at the Siwa Oasis, and flourished in the first half of the 1st century AD. Apion studied at Alexandria. He settled in Rome at an unknown date. Apion taught rhetoric until the reign of Claudius.〔Hazel, John (Who's who in the Roman World ) books.google.com. Accessed 2009-4-10.〕 He wrote several works, none of which has survived. The well-known story "Androclus and the Lion", which is preserved in Aulus Gellius〔Aulus Gellius. Attic Nights V.xiv〕 is from his work: Aegyptiaca ("Wonders of Egypt"). The surviving fragments of his work are printed in the ''Etymologicum Gudianum'', ed. Sturz, 1818. Following intra and inter-communal violence in Alexandria a deputation of Greeks and a deputation of Jews was sent to Rome to argue community interests before Caligula (in 40) in response to conflict between Greeks, Jews and Egyptians. Apion's criticisms of Jewish culture and history were replied to by Josephus in Against Apion. ==Notes==
