Beschreibung | Lucius Accius (/ˈækiəs/; 170 – c. 86 BC), or Lucius Attius, was a Roman tragic poet and literary scholar. Accius was born in 170 BC at Pisaurum, a town founded in the Ager Gallicus in 184 BC. He was the son of a freedman and a freedwoman, probably from Rome. The year of his death is unknown, but he must have lived to a great age, since Cicero (born 106 BC, hence 64 years younger) writes of having conversed with him on literary matters. |
Let them hate so long as they fear.
A man whose life has been dishonourable is not entitled to escape disgrace in death.
Indeed, wretched the man whose fame makes his misfortunes famous.
