Demaratus
2. A Corinthian author of uncertain date, who is quoted by Plutarch. (Ages. 15.) He is perhaps the same whose work called τραπγῳδούμενα, on the subjects of Greek tragedy, is referred to by Clement of Alexandria, Stobaeus, and the Scholiast on Apollonius Rhodius. Plutarch also quotes works of Demaratus on rivers, on Phrygiar, and on Arcadia. (Plnt. Parall. Min. 16, de Fluv. 9. §§ 3, 5; Clem. Alex. Protrept. 100.3; Stob. Floril. 39.32, 33; Schol. ad Apoll. Rhod. 1.45, 1289; Fabric. Bibl. Graec. ii. pp. 289, 294; Vossius, de Hist. Graec. p. 425, ed. Westermann.)
