Stesichorus: The ‘Sack of Troy’ and ‘The Wooden Horse’ (P. Oxy. 2619 and 2803)
A. Frr. 1+47 col. i The poem represented in P. Oxy. 2619 is self-evidently the work of Stesichorus, presumably his Iliou Persis . From the fragments as originally published not a single complete line or sentence could be reconstructed; the style and structure were, as Mr Lobel said, ‘quite unrecognisable’. There was really nothing to be done; it was a great disappointment. To this gloomy picture Mr Barrett, with extraordinary ingenuity and skill,…

The Song of Hybrias the Cretan
The purpose of the following notes is twofold: to correct some current mis-statements about the text, dialect and metre (on which, to some extent, our judgement of the date may depend); and to draw from the text an inference about the status of Hybrias. Athenaeus xv, 695 F seq
Poetae Melici Graeci
An Early Tragedy on the Fall of Croesus
In Hesperia , XXIV (1955), 305–19 (with plate 85) Sir John Beazley published five fragments of a hydria from Corinth dated ‘between 480 and 450, and in all probability between 470 and 460 or 450’. Fragment A represents the upper part of a man in oriental dress, with both arms bent at the elbow, forearms raised, apparently supporting the body by grasping two vertical staves, one on each side. The lower part of his body is concealed by the upper pa…

Conjectures in Sophocles' ‘Philoctetes’
187 βαρεῖα δ ̓ ἀθυρόστομος codd. In the corresponding place of the strophe (176–7) we observe interlinear hiatus, ἀντέχει / ὦ: at this point of the antistrophe, therefore, a metrical period must be marked; there can be no run-over from βαρεῖ to -α δ ̓ ἀθυρόστομος. ἁ δ ̓ ἀθυρόστομος is absolutely required by the metre, and we are left with βαρεῖ- at the end of the preceding sentence. Taken as an adjective with λιμῷ, it is called ‘awkward and feebl…
IV The Homeric Description of Mycenaean Greece
History and the Homeric Iliad
The Historical Sack of Troy
The site of Troy was first occupied by men at some time not long before or after 3000 B.C. Whatthey built on the bedrock was the fortress of a chieftain, a few large wellfurnished houses within an oval of stout walls. After some 500 years the stronghold was consumed by a great fire; and the same people rebuilt a far bigger and stronger Troy, the Second City, with massive walls and monumental gates, and a great palace or temple on the summit of th…
Aeschylus: Agamemnon
A Note on Corinna
Inc.Q,., N.S. v (1955), i76ff., Mr. A. E. Harvey discusses the problem presented by the first ten lines of the first column of the Berlin Papyrus of Corinna, and finds the solution in the region of erroneous colometry. So far as I can judge, he is justified in claiming that he has offered ‘the most concise and satisfactory explanation of the irregularities’; but, if so, there is one further step which should be taken, and there is one obscurity i…

Thucydides' Description of the Great Plague at Athens
The nature of the Plague described by Thucydides in Book 2, chapter 49, has long been discussed both by medical and by classical scholars. Of numerous suggested identifications none has found general approval; and it is doubtful whether any opinion is more prevalent today than that the problem is insoluble. The classical scholar is handicapped by his ignorance of medical science; his medical colleague has often been led astray by translations def…

A New Fragment of Aeolic Verse
The following fragment of a papyrus-roll, written in a hand which may be assigned to the second or third century a.d. , was bought by Professor O. Guéraud from the antiquary Nahman on behalf of the Société Fouad de Papyrologie (P. Fouad Inv. no. 239). With singular generosity Professor Guéraud has resigned to us the right to publish the text, which we now present with the help of photographs and a transcript, with notes, made by Professor Guéraud…
On the New Greek Historical Drama
See Lobel, Proc. British Academy xxxv. 1 ff., June 1950. I. col. ii. 1. γυ[ ]... εῖδον [ο]ὐκ εἴκαсμ⋯ τι εἰκ⋯сματι = εἰκαсμ⋯ι, ‘by guessing’, seems at least as likely as εἴκαсμ⋯ τι = εἴδωλ⋯ν τι ‘[At first I could not make out who or what it was: but when] I saw Gyges [clearly,] not by guesswork, I was afraid of a plot for murder.’ For example: ΓΓ[γην сαφ⋯] [εἰ] εῖδον, [ο]ὐκ εἰκ⋯сματι, κτλ.

The Chorus of Alcman's Partheneion
The irregular division of vv. 35 sqq. between two semi-choruses seems to bo widely accepted and approved.2 I wish first to discuss the obvious objection that such an irregular division is unparalleled in a strophic chorus,3 and secondly to show that the reasons advanced for the division are themselves insufficient
The Authorship of Sappho β2 ( Lobel )
Two papyri ascribe this poem to Sappho (P. Oxy. 1232 and P. Oxy. 2076); Athenaeus (XI. 4600) attributes v. 10 to her; Philostratos ( Imag. II. i, p. 62) attributes v. 30 to her. In three of these places the poem is assigned to her Second Book. Perhaps it is true that hardly any other poem of Sappho is so often ascribed to her by antiquity. This admittedly proves no more than that the poem was certainly handed down in the Sappho-book in antiquity:…

A New Fragment of a Greek Tragedy
Fragments of mummy-cartonnage, formerly in the collection of University College, London, now on permanent loan to the Ashmolean. Parts of two columns of a papyrus-text of a Greek Tragedy: head and foot of both columns partly preserved. The lines of col. ii are not quite straight opposite those of col i. There were eighteen or nineteen lines in col. i, nineteen in col. ii, the last line of col. ii being slightly below the level of the last line of…
A New Papyrus Fragment of Euripides' Medea
In the Fitzwilliam Museum at Cambridge there is a papyrus fragment, hitherto unpublished, of Euripides' Medea . It was written early in the 2nd century A.D., or possibly at the end of the 1st century A.D. The hand is a good round medium upright, similar to that of P. Oxy. 1810, possibly a little older. The stop and apostrophe in Fr. 1 line 1174 were evidently added later. There are several smudges and blots. Elisions only. There were 35 lines to …

Simonidea
‘You will be unable to comprehend strophe, antistrophe or epode; it will read like a piece of continuous prose:’ the question has been long debated, whether Dionysius' claim is justified. Experiment has proved that brute force will be required to hammer the following quotation from Simonides into the shape of a complete strophe and complete antistrophe, with or without all or part of an epode. Specimens may be seen and judged elsewhere. They need…
