Category:Ancient Greek poets by dialect
Wikimedia Commons has media related to Ancient Greek poets by dialect.
| “ | It is a historical fact that each major poetic genre in the archaic period tends to appropriate the surface structure of a single dialect to the exclusion of all others. For example, the elegiac poetry of even the Doric areas, is characterized by Ionic diction (Theognis of Megara, Tyrtaeus of Sparta) ; conversely the diction of choral lyric will be a synthetic form of Doric even for Ionian poets like Simonides and Bacchylides | ” |
