{"product_id":"two-studies-on-pindar","title":"Two Studies on Pindar","description":"The late Bruce Karl Braswell worked on Pindar for decades. Besides many smaller contributions, his research resulted in fundamental commentaries on \u003ci\u003ePythian Four\u003c\/i\u003e (1988), \u003ci\u003eNemean One\u003c\/i\u003e (1992), and \u003ci\u003eNemean Nine\u003c\/i\u003e (1998), and his last monograph, dedicated to Didymos of Alexandria and his ancient commentary on Pindar (2013). Two substantial, self-contained manuscript fragments were found in his papers after his death. Their originality and innovative methodological approach justify their posthumous publication.\u003cbr\u003e Part I of the present volume contains the fragment of Braswell’s planned study, \u003ci\u003eA Contribution to the History of Pindaric Scholarship\u003c\/i\u003e. Using the example of \u003ci\u003eNemean Nine\u003c\/i\u003e, Braswell traces the history of Pindar interpretation from Antiquity to the end of the 16th century. The source texts for his exegesis appear as an appendix to the study.\u003cbr\u003e Part II contains the completed fragment of \u003ci\u003eA Commentary on Pindar Nemean Ten\u003c\/i\u003e. Alongside the original text and translation of the first two triads of this ode, this section includes a detailed verse-by-verse commentary and the text and translation of the relevant scholia. The commentary on the first triad is supplemented by an extensive appendix on the Argive legends and monuments reported by Pausanias. In brief introductions, the editor recounts the origins of the manuscripts and their preparation for print.","brand":"Peter Lang AG, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54243764666712,"sku":"9783034316767","price":83.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9783034316767.jpg?v=1765379723","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/two-studies-on-pindar","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
