Brill's New Pauly: "Alexis, Writer of Attic comedies from Thurii in
Lower Italy, who is said to have been the uncle and teacher of Menander....He is considered
the most significant representative of Middle Comedy after Antiphanes
in at least half of his
work, however, he scarcely differed from writers of new forms and he was happily associated
with them as a model by Roman comic writers." Nesselrath, Heinz-Günther (Göttingen). Alexis."
