Galeomyomachia

(Γαλεομυομαχία). “The Battle of the Cats and Mice;” a poem written in the mock-heroic vein by a Greek monk, Theodorus Prodromus (q. v.), who lived in the twelfth century A.D. It is in the main imitated from the pseudo-Homeric Batrachomyomachia (q.v.). An edition of it was published by Ilgen (Halle, 1796).
