Stasi'nus

（*Stasi=nos), of Cyprus, an epic poet, to whom some of the ancient writers attributed that one of the poems of the Epic Cycle which was entitled Κύπριαor τὰἔπητὰΚύπρια. The statements on the subject are, however, so various, and partake so much of conjecture, that no certain conclusion can be drawn from them. In the earliest historical period of Greek literature, and before critical inquiries began, the Cypriawas accepted without question as a work of Homer. Pindar refers to it as Homer's (Fr. 189, apud Aelian, V. H.9.15; but there is some doubt as to the genuineness of the quotation); and the respect in which it was held by the early tragedians is evident from the number of their dramas which were founded upon it. Herodotus (2.117) decidedly controverts the opinion which ascribed it to Homer; but in a manner which plainly shows that that opinion was still the prevailing one. Plato, on the other hand, quotes as from Homer two verses which, the Scholiast asserts, are from the Cypria(Euthyphr.p. 12a.). Aristotle (Aristot. Poet. 23.6) distinguishes the author of the Cypriafrom Homer, but without mentioning the name of the former; and Pausanias refers to the poem in the same manner (3.16. §; 4.2.7; 10.26.1; 10.31.2). It is not till we come down to the ti
