Pisistratus

In 1900 he entirely reversed his position, the school was abandoned, and the story of Pisistratus was accepted.

That Pisistratus did so is Mr. Leafs theory, but there is not a hint about anybody collecting anything in the Greek.

Burns was a great lyric poet, whereas we hear of no great epic poet in the age of Pisistratus.

Pisistratus could not feel flattered by passages intended to exhibit his ancestor as a conceited and inopportune old babbler.

I ventured in 1896 to suggest that the interpolator was trying to please Pisistratus, but this was said in a spirit of mockery.
