Alexis
Alexis (ca.
375 BC-ca.
275 BC) was a
Greek comic poet of the
Middle Comedy, born at
Thurii and taken early to
Athens, where he became a citizen. He won his first
Lenaean victory in the
350s BC, most likely, where he was sixth after
Eubulus, and fourth after
Antiphanes.
Plutarch says that he lived to the age of 106, and that he died on the stage while being crowned. According to the
Suda, he wrote 245 comedies, of which some 130 titles are preserved. Only fragments of any of the plays have survived - about 340 in all, totalling about 1,000 lines. They attest to the wit and refinement of the author (see Theodor Kock, Comicorum Atticorum Fragmenta). The Suda also calls him
Menander's
uncle, but an anonymous
tractate on comedy more plausibly states that Menander was his pupil. Alexis was known in
Roman times;
Aulus Gellius noted that Alexis' plays were used by Roman comedians, including Turpilius and possibly
Plautus. The name also means helper of mankind.
