An Emendation in Hesychius Π 196
The entry π 196 of Hesychius is textually corrupt. This note challenges the traditional way of explaining the corruption and emending the text, which goes back to Marcus Musurus (1514), and replaces it with a simpler and more economical approach
Scholia vetera in Sophoclis ›Antigonam‹
Scholars have been seeking to understand Sophocles’ Antigone for over two millennia. The origins of this long tradition of the play’s interpretation are now represented mainly by a series of notes that have survived in the margins of medieval manuscripts. The book offers an English introduction and an authoritative critical text, which is accompanied by a detailed apparatus criticus.
Nothing to Do with Eupolis’ Demoi: Testimonium *vi K.–A
"Scholia vetera in Sophoclis "Oedipum Coloneum
The ancient scholia to Sophocles’ Oedipus at Colonus shed light on Alexandrian ways of engaging with this play, and are richer than those to the other Sophoclean plays. The last editor, Vittorio de Marco (1952), established a better text of these scholia than his predecessors, in as much as he had a fuller knowledge of their manuscript tradition and a better understanding of their stratified nature. Still, his work is marred by a number of inaccu…
Michael Syncellus: A Neglected Source for Aelius Herodian's Περι Καθολικης Προσωιδιας
In his book Περὶ τῆς τοῦ λόγου συντάξεως Michael Syncellus includes a section on the rules for accenting prepositions that occur in anastrophe (1128–204, §§ 144–9). This section is also part of the chapter on the accentuation of prepositions preserved in the Τονικὰ παραγγέλματα by John of Alexandria (26.13–28.19), an important epitome of Aelius Herodian's lost work Περὶ καθολικῆς προσῳδίας. Further below (1595–606, § 189, and 1614–43, §§ 191–2), …
An Unnoticed Fragment of Orus’ Treatises Περὶ ὀρθογραφίας and Ἀττικῶν λέξεων συναγωγή, and Phrynichus’ Σοφιστικὴ προπαρασκευή
In this article1) I shall argue that the author of the Etymologicum Genuinum derived his entry on φώιζeιν from Orus’ Πeρὶ ὀρθογραφίας, and not Herodian’s Πeρὶ ὀρθογραφίας. Furthermore, I shall attempt to reconstruct the earlier history of the passage: Orus’ Πeρὶ ὀρθογραφίας drew upon Orus’ Ἀττικῶν λέξeων συναγωγή, which in turn drew upon Phrynichus’ Σοφιστικὴ προπαρασκeυή. This second part of the article is admittedly speculative, but, as will be…

"Scholia vetera in Sophoclis "Electram
Scholars have been seeking to understand Sophocles' Electra for over two millennia. The beginnings of this long tradition of the play's interpretation lie in Hellenistic Alexandria and are now beingrepresented by a series of notes which have survived in the margins of medieval manuscripts. The book offers an English introduction and an authoritative new critical text of these notes based on a thorough review of the manuscript evidence and the bes…
"Scholia vetera in Sophoclis "Trachinias
This authoritative new edition of the ancient scholia to Sophocles' Trachiniae is designed to replace the corresponding part of the Teubner text published in 1888. It is the first to rely on a complete scrutiny of the sources of the text and the conjectural activity of scholars, but is also characterised by a fresh methodological approach: the transmission of scholia is prone to creating different versions of basically the same material, and to m…
A Papyrus Fragment with Mention of a Loan upon Mortgage
The papyrus preserves seven complete lines from the central part of a column.There is a left margin of 1 cm and a right one of 0.7 cm. The writing runs parallel to the fibres. The back is blank. On palaeographical grounds the papyrus could be ascribed to the fifth century A. D.; cf. BGU XII 2141 (446 A. D.; Plate 2a)
