Timocles
Timocles was one of the last Athenian comic poets of the Middle Comedy, although Pollux listed him among the writers of New Comedy. He is known to have won first prize at the Lenaea once, between 330 and 320 BC. The Suda claims that there were two comic poets of this name, but modern scholars equate the two. Unlike most Middle Comedy plays, his works featured a good deal of personal ridicule of public figures, especially orators like Demosthenes and Hyperides.
