>a majority of Alexandrian poetry
They didn't really write verse in alexandrines did they?

> the entirety of New Comedy, and early Latin poetry
Aristophanes is certainly funny, but New Comedy is just a form of slave comedy and probably a degradation of what Aristotle would have articulated in the Poetics. It's hard to know however... many works of early Latin poetry may have been satire, but what can equal Juvenal for that?

It could be interesting to see Triphallus performed as a greek play though, definitely.

Dr. William Smith's Bible Dictionary, an American publication. 1959 Edition, A.J. Holman Company. I think the text is from the later 19th Century. It's often found in thrift stores for about $2.00, but get the hardcover not the paperback. I think there is an extended Three Volume edition as well? This edition is just a compilation but it's a great book!
