Albinovānus, C. Pedo

An epic writer of the Augustan Age, the friend of the younger Seneca, who calls him fabulator elegantissimus, and quotes him to show his ability as a raconteur. He is also mentioned by Ovid, Martial, and Quintilian. He wrote a Thebaïs, and an epic on contemporary history. The elder Seneca ( Suas. 14) cites twenty-three hexameters of his, describing a storm in the North Sea. See Haube, Zur Kenntn. des Alb. Ped. (Fraustadt, 1880).
