Porphyry and ancient scholarship on Iliad 10.252–253
In Iliad 10, Odysseus claims that ‘more night has passed | than two parts, but still a third part remains’ (252–253). This gave rise to a Homeric problem, which received a great deal of attention from ancient scholars: If more than two parts of the night have passed, how can a third part remain? The main source for a variety of solutions to it is a lengthy discussion written along the perimeter of three pages of Venetus B, an important manuscript…
Heraclides’ Epitome of Aristotle's Constitutions and Barbarian Customs
The Aristotelian Πολιτεῖαι collected information on the history and organization of reportedly 158 city-states. Of these only the Ἀθηναίων πολιτεία survives almost in its entirety on two papyri. All that remains of the other constitutions is the epitome by Heraclides Lembus (second century b.c.e. ) and about 130 fragments. This article will look at the transmission of Heraclides’ epitome (itself preserved as excerpts) and explore the possibility …
Dikaiarchos of Messene
Dikaiarchos (ca. 370/350–post 323 bce ) from Messene on Sicily was a Greek Peripatetic philosopher, a pupil of Aristotle, and a friend of Aristoxenos. He wrote on cultural history, literature (Homer, Alcaeus, drama), philosophers (the Seven Sages, Pythagoras, Plato), geography, politics, ethics, and the soul. Cicero greatly admired him. All of Dikaiarchos’ works are now lost, however, and are only known through citations in preserved writers.
A Peripatetic Dialogue in P.Oxy. LIII 3699
This article presents a new edition with a translation and a commentary of P.Oxy. LIII 3699. By examining the originals I have been able to join the fragments, which were published as separate pieces in the editio princeps. The text is a philosophical dialogue dealing with education and probably belongs to the Aristotelian Peripatos.
