A person who writes about or describes hexameter verse, or one skilled in the analysis and documentation of hexametrical composition.
From 'hexameter' + '-grapher' (one who writes about), combining Greek 'metron' (measure) and 'graphia' (writing). A rare scholarly term for metrics specialists and classical commentators.
Medieval and Renaissance hexametrographers produced enormous commentaries analyzing every syllable of classical verse, and their meticulous work preserved not just the poems themselves but detailed knowledge of how ancient people pronounced Latin and Greek.
