Apsines of Gadara (; fl. 3rd century AD) was a Greek rhetorician. He studied at Smyrna and taught at Athens, gaining such a reputation that he was raised to the consulship by the emperor Maximinus. He was a rival of Fronto of Emesa, and a friend of Philostratus, the author of the ''Lives of the Sophists'', who praises his wonderful memory and accuracy. Two rhetorical treatises by him are extant: (technae raetorikae ), a handbook of rhetoric greatly interpolated, a considerable portion being taken from the ''Rhetoric'' of Longinus; and a smaller work, (perhi eschaematismenon problaematon ), on Propositions maintained figuratively. Editions by Bake, 1849; Spengel-Hammer in ''Rhetores Graeci'', ii. (1894): see also Hammer, ''De Apsine Rhetore'' (1876); Volkmann, ''Rhetorik der Griechen und Romer'' (1885). Two rhetorical treatises by him are extant: # His Τέχνη ῥητορική ("Art of Rhetoric") is a greatly interpolated handbook of rhetoric, a considerable portion being taken from the ''Rhetoric'' of Longinus and other material from Hermogenes; an English translation was first published in 1997. Malcolm Heath has argued (''APJ'' 1998) that the work's attribution to Apsines is incorrect. # A smaller work, Περὶ ἐσχηματισμένων προβλημάτων ("on Propositions maintained figuratively"). == Editions == * Jan Bake (1849) * Spengel-Hammer, ''Rhetores Graeci'' (1894) * Mervin R.
