Telephus (gr Τήλεφος, Telephos) a Greek grammarian, a native of Pergamon. He lived in the time of Hadrianus, and was one of the instructors of Verus. (Capitol. Ver. 2.) He was the author of a considerable number of works, none of which, however, have come down to us. Suidas gives the following list of them: -- 1. Περὶ τῶν παῤ Ὁμήρῳ σχημάτων ῥητορικῶν, in two books. 2. Περὶ συντάξεως λόγου Ἀττικοῦ, in five books. 3. Περὶ τῆς καθ̓ Ὅμηρον ῥητορικῆς. 4. Περὶ τοῦ Ὁμήρου καὶ Πλάτωνος συμφωνίας. 5. Ποικίλης φιλομαθίας βιβλία β̓. 6. Βίοι τραγικῶν καὶ κωμικῶν. 7. Βιβλιακὴ ἐμπειρία, in three books (containing a list of books worth getting). 8. Ὡς μόνος Ὅμηρος τῶν ἀρχαίων ἑλληνίζει. 9. Περιήγησις Περγάμου. 10. Περὶ τοῦ ἐν Περγάμῳ Σεβαστίου, in two books. 11. Περὶ τῶν Ἀθήνͅησι δικαστηρίων. 12. Περὶ τῶν Ἀθήνῃσι νόμων καὶ ἐθῶν. 13. Περὶ τῶν Περγάμου βασιλέων, in five books. 14. περὶ χρήσεως, a sort of dictionary, arranged in alphabetical order, of things in common use, words, dress, &c. 15. Περὶ τῆς Ὀδυσσέως πλάνης, 16. Ὠκυτόκιον, in ten books. This quaint title was given to a dictionary of synonymous words, designed to give copiousness and facility in speaking. (Suid. s. v. ; Vossius, de Hist. Gr. p. 264; Fabric. Bib. Gr. vol. i. p. 525, vol. vi. p. 380.)
