Quintus Curtius Rufus

Latin writer of uncertain date, author of a history of Alexander the Great originally comprising ten books. Zirkoff characterizes its narrative as more romantic than critical and lists Latin editions and John C. Rolfe’s bilingual Loeb edition. (BCW). The compiler tentatively identifies the reference as his history of Alexander the Great in the Loeb Classical Library (BCW 11:587).
