Seneca-Tragoedia

Klappentext Based on a comprehensive investigation of all manuscripts and florilegia, this edition provides, for the first time, a secure reconstruction of the two hyparchetypes on which the text depends. Zwierlein demonstrates that all former manuscripts of Seneca's tragedies stem ultimately from these two branches of the tradition, both of which are adequately transmitted by pure representatives. He provides a concise critical apparatus, includes a fully-referenced account of all testimonia, emendations, and conjectures, and collates all important manuscripts and florilegia. Zusammenfassung Based on a comprehensive investigation of all manuscripts and florilegia, this edition provides the first secure reconstruction of the two hyparchetypes from which all former manuscripts of Seneca's tragedies ultimately stem.
