Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 26 Great progress has been made during the last half-century in the study of the metrical and rhythmical phenomena exhibited by the Greek and Latin poets. I do not here propose to add one more to the list of these inquiries, but to record the results of a study of the Latin hexameter poets made from a point of view rather rhetorical than rhythmical. In the course of this exposition I wish to make some inquiry into the causes by which the effects here noted may have been produced. Evidence will have to be produced in a statistical form, and to do this satisfactorily is most difficult. Observations such as those I have been making are peculiarly liable to be vitiated by 'subjectivity'. Of this I am well aware, and I have done my best to set forth trustworthy details, as is more fully explained below. Two general precautions are necessary. The observer must be ever on his guard against a readiness to admit evidence favourable to conclusions already half seen by anticipation: and the materials when collected must not be strained as evidence. I can only say that I have striven to observe these precautions, and that I shall not infer anything from the exact relations of various percentages.

Download or read book The Journal of Philology Vol 24 Classic Reprint written by W. Aldis Wright and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 24 In the course of lecturing on these books in the year 1894 I found many old difficulties still unsolved by commentators; while several new ones suggested themselves, principally from a study of the full collation of MSS given in Hude's text-edition Copenhagen 1890. In this excellent book it is at last possible to see the facts at a glance. Hence most of the following notes, in which I have tried to meet a few difficulties, turn on textual points. I fear I am sadly behind the age, for the tendency of the notes is in the main conservative. The facile bracketing of the subjectively unpleasing (a common phenomenon in modern criticism) is in my eyes tolerable only when unforced reasons can be given to account for the alleged interpolation. This however is seldom the case. The text of the same editor varies in different editions: what was a pointless insertion sometimes becomes a pointed and integral part of the passage; and the repentant critic explains at leisure what he had expunged in haste. So too with verbal emendations. A few are brilliant, a very few certain; while the attempts to change what is presumably bad into what is surely worse are numberless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 27 Somewhat reluctantly I have been driven by a close examination of epic usage to the conclusion that the curious phrase, 76m, 8' aiis-ro Ounce, his soul thought of lamentation wailing was the thought of his soul' is Homerically an illegitimate and indefensible expression. It recurs, it is true, once again, u 349, where the whole line is repeated verbatim after docs 8' cipa mpeaw. The only advantage however to be derived from this recurrence is that it saves us from the error of making Own?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 12 2 mallem audire Cottam dum, qua eloquentia falsos deos sustulit, eadem veros inducat. This is the general reading of the MSS., except that A, with one or two inferior codices, has malem; but, as A has also nolent for nollent in 7 the variation is unimportant. Heindorf followed by Muller reads malim. I retain the old text, and take the sentence to be equivalent to mallem audire eundem inducen-tem qui sustulerat, translating 'for my part I should have preferred to hear that same Cotta using the eloquence with which he abolished the false gods, to bring in the true.' For audire dum ef. Suet. Dom. 4 auditus est dum ab eo quaerit, and ray note on N. D. I. 58 videor audisse cum. For the discrepancy of tenses we have such parallels as Fin.

Download or read book The Journal of Philology Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by William George Clark and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 3 Considering the paucity and scantiness of any Accadian inscriptions, such a knowledge might have seemed impossible. Fortunately however the bilingual tablets of Assyrian and Accadian, drawn up by the order of Assur-bani-pal, the son of Essarhaddon, have been preserved in a more or less mutilated condition. Had they come down to us perfect, we should have had, without doubt, a complete grammar of the ancient tongue of Chaldsea. As it is, however, the fragments frequently are broken off just where their preservation would have been of most importance. It is necessary to proceed in gi-eat measure by the help of induction and comparison. Hence I have been compelled to relinquish the design I had originally formed of drawing up a complete Accadian grammar. The gaps and imperfections would have been so numerous that I have judged it my best course to take a single inscription, and to make the philological analysis which I have attached to it the means of setting forth all the facts of Accadian grammar which I have been able to get together. I shall conclude by endeavouring to fix the position of the Accadian among the recognised families of speech, and so to justify such analogies from other languages as I have brought forward in the commentary. The inscription which I have selected is one which, so far as I know, has never yet been published. It differs, also, from the chief part of those with which we are acquainted, in its not being royal. With the exception of the tenth line the characters are very legible.

Bicec opolis does not leave the stage but the scene behind him changes to an open space in the country with a house on each side, one for Dicaeopolis (line 202) the other for Euripides, line 368. The house which serves first as the dwelling of Euripides may do duty for that of Lamachus afterwards. Dicaeopolis on his road home is musing regretfully on the loss of his luncheon when he is interrupted by the return of Amphitheus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 25 The following pages contain only a negative and partial criticism Of the interpretation Of Plato put forward by Dr Jackson under the above title in earlier volumes Of this Journal. The same interpretation appears also, with certain modifications, in Mr Archer Hind's editions Of the Phaedo and Timaeus. My criticism is directed against one part of it only, though that a central and perhaps vital part: but I must endeavour in the first place to give briefly a general summary Of the later theory as conceived by Dr Jackson'. I do so for the sake Of clearness, and in order to recall the main points to those already familiar with them, rather than in the attempt to make a very intricate piece Of argument intelligible to any readers to whom it is here presented for the first time.

This order Of the Escorial excerpts is found also in the two Paris mss, and seems to have descended to them from an early period. It can however have very little weight: for the order of the complete mss agrees with their wording and forms a consistent Whole, whereas the order followed in the excerpts is palpably confused, and the changes introduced, after the right order had been, perhaps consciously, to make the excerpt read better, abandoned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 33 The following paper owes its inception and a certain amount of its information to Mr Mooney's recent edition of the Argonautica. Mr Mooney has made three excellent corrections in the text, i 517, ii 1179, iv 1562, and his text as a whole is the best yet printed; he has gone further towards providing an apparatus criticus than any of his predecessors; his is the first English edition with an English commentary, and his commentary is frequently very useful. This is a great deal to have done, and I am unfeignedly grateful to him myself. I fear that he will find my gratitude overpowering, and will wish that I had "dissembled my love" altogether, but to edit classics is to invite criticism and I trust that none of mine is unfair. If he often misunderstands the poet, he is not one atom worse in this than the other critics so far as I have ascertained. Nor must it be supposed that all the mistranslations I comment on are his.

Book The American Journal of Philology  Vol  28  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The American Journal of Philology Vol 28 Classic Reprint written by Basil L. Gildersleeve and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of Philology, Vol. 28 In this age of the "so-called" in Latin syntax, even so universal a category as the unreal conditional sentence has been questioned from time to time, and lately by Methner, who tries to show that there is no such thing as the present unreal. The weakness of this thesis has already been pointed out by Blase, whose argument might have been rendered even more cogent by carrying the question back to Plautus, taking such an example as the following: St. 592-93: EP. Edepol te vocem lubenter, si superfiat locus. GE. Quin tum stans obstrusero aliquid strenue. In this passage the reply shows beyond the shadow of a doubt that the conditional sentence was understood not as a future ("if there should prove to be a place to spare"), but as a present unreal ("if there were a place to spare"). The former interpretation would hold out hope of a dinner, the other cuts it off definitely and calls forth Gelasimus' eager suggestion. Such a passage shows conclusively that the present unreal was an established category in the Roman mind at least as early as Plautus.

For, in the Platonic country, not only has the air been cleared by the spirit of the master, but there is a certain kindliness engendered by the fewness of those who cultivate the ground. The shrine of the Muses in these parts is hard by that of Achelous, so that you may chance to be swept away by the torrent if you approach too near. And the Heroon of Dr. Bentley is not far off.
