Abstract


This article is an analysis of a passage by Athenaeus (XII 552b) in which Philetas is qualified as λεπτότερος. After examining texts by Callimachus and Aratus we come to the conclusion that the adjective λεπτότερος does not refer to the physical appearance of Philetas, but to his participation in a new literary current characterized by λεπτότης.
