Notes:
RE Zenon (9-10). He is probably the rhetor mentioned in
Philostratus,
Lives of the Sophists 2.24, and his
On Issues the work epitomised by Sulpicius Victor (
Rhetores Latini Minores 313.2-4 Halm).
[1] Confusing the rhetor with the Stoic
Zeno of Citium (
zeta 79; RE Zenon(2); OCD4
Zeno(2)); the rhetor's ethnic may therefore be an error.
