Ste'phanus

（*Ste/fanos), literary.

1. An Athenian comic poet of the New Comedy, was probably the son of Antiphanes, some of whose plays he is said to have exhibited. (Anon. de Com. p. xxx.; Suid, s. v. Ἀντιφάνης.) The other statement of Suidas (s. v. Ἄλεξις), that he was the son of Alexis, seems to arise merely from a confusion of the names of Alexis and Antiphanes. All that remains of his works is a single fragment, quoted by Athenaeus (xi. p. 469a.), from his Φιλολάκων, a play which was evidently intended to ridicule the imitators of Lacedaemonian manners. (Fabric. Bibl. Graec. vol. ii. p. 496; Meineke, Frag. Com. Graec. vol. i. pp. 304, 376, 485, 486, vol. iv. p. 544.)

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
