	Heliodorus - LoveToKnow 1911
		According to his own statement his father's name was Theodosius, and he belonged to a family of priests of the sun.
		Homer and Euripides were the favourite authors of Heliodorus, who in his turn was imitated by French, Italian and Spanish writers.
		It is supposed that the work was written in his early years before he became a Christian, and that, when confronted with the alternative of disowning it or resigning his bishopric, he preferred resignation.

		But Heliodorus, because of the king's commands which he had, said that this money must in any case be confiscated for the king's treasury.
		Quickly some of Heliodorus' friends asked Onias to call upon the Most High and to grant life to one who was lying quite at his last breath.

		Heliodorus was a Greek ambassador to India in the second century B.C. Few details are known about the diplomatic relations between the Greeks and the Indians in those days, and still less is know about Heliodorus.

		From the inscriptions it is seems clear Heliodorus was influenced by Vedic principles that he could be considered to be a Vaisnava, a follower or worshipper of Visnu.

	Bryn Mawr Classical Review 1999.06.04
		According to Bertoni and Fusillo, by choosing epic poetry as his form and Heliodorus as his principal model, Basile produces an epic which neatly sidesteps some of the rigid requirements imposed on this genre in the preceding century.
		Heliodorus' work, or course, provided Basile with an abundance of sentimental and erotic material; but the baroque author goes much further, developing Theagenes into an even more melodramatic hero, highlighting the sorrowful side of love, and expanding the roles of the rivals Arsake and Thyamis with rhetorically crafted, highly emotional monologues.
		He extends some of Heliodorus' battle scenes in an apparent attempt to conform to contemporary epic canons, but at the same time he infuses these military scenes with atypical erotic pathos, as in the deaths of the lover-warriors Arimante and Ilia in canto 18.

		After analyzing the style and form of the column he incorrectly deduced that it was erected during the reign of the Imperial Gupta dynasty in 200A.D. He never dreamed that underneath the thick coating of red silt accumulated over the ages at the bottom of the pillar was an ancient inscription.
		Yet and still Ambassador Heliodorus became an avid and enthusiastic devotee of the Supreme Lord Krishna and left a most impressive monumental pillar in the Heliodorus Column as a testament to this for posterity.
		In conclusion it can be clearly ascertained that the Heliodorus Column effectively illustrates that the Vedic culture was excellent enough to capture the mind and the hearts of the refined and cultured Greeks; yet catholic enough to allow them into their ranks.

		The author was Heliodorus the son of Theodosius, whose family is descended from the Sun, a man of Phoenicia, from Emessa.” There is no doubt that he was writing under the Roman empire although there is wide disagreement about his date; some put him about 230 A.D. and others nearer 400.
		Clotilde Bertoni and Massimo Fusillo, in Heliodorus Parthenopaeus, the Aithiopika in baroque Naples describe what must have been a golden age for the Aithiopika when artists considered Heliodorus the third ancient epic poet after Homer and Vergil (even though his novel is in prose).
