The Elegies of Albius Tibullus

Angebote / Angebote:

Excerpt from The Elegies of Albius Tibullus: The Corpus Tibullianum Edited With Introduction, and Notes on Books I, II, and IV, 2-14 This edition contains the first detailed commentary in English upon the entire text of Tibullus, Sulpicia, and the anonymous elegies of the fourth book. Whether the edition has any further justification of its existence must be left to the judgment of the reader. The text coincides in the main with that of Hiller's recension (1885, reprinted 1899). Changes are recorded in the Appendix, and details of textual transmission, whenever they seem to be of sufficient importance, are discussed in the Notes. The Panegyricus Messallae and the elegies of Lygdamus are not dealt with in the Notes, and, owing to the uncertainty of their pedigree, the two Priapea sometimes found in editions of Tibullus are not included in the text. It is obvious, however, that intelligent and profitable study of our poet must be accompanied by frequent recourse to the entire Corpus Tibullianum as it now stands. No portion therefore of the traditional text has been omitted. The "Testimonia Veterum, " by which the text is followed, contain whatever else antiquity has to say of Tibullus's life and work. In its present form the Introduction is the result of a thorough revision in the interests of brevity and simplicity.
