Sotades Sotades (Greek: Σωτάδης; 3rd century BC) was an Ancient Greek poet. Sotades was born in Maroneia, either the one in Thrace, or in Crete. He was the chief representative of the writers of obscene and even pederastic satirical poems, called Kinaidoi, composed in the Ionic dialect and in the "sotadic" metre named after him. The sotadic metre or sotadic verse, which has been classified by ancient and modern scholars as a form of ionic metre, is one that reads backwards and forwards the same, as “llewd did I live, and evil I did dwell.” These verses have also been called palindromic. Sotades lived in Alexandria during the reign of Ptolemy II Philadelphus (285-246 BC). 7 Ways Universities Can Effectively Use Social Media The official opening of the Harvard Innovation Lab was shared all over social media channels.
