About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1883 Excerpt: ...was given to that portion of the poem, --for there is every probability that the 'Hoiai and the KardXoyos are two names of the same or parts of the same poem, at least in their later recension. The long description of Alcmena's beauty and of the amour of Zeus has no connexion with the general subject, beyond showing cause for the innate valour of Hercules. Goettling therefore distinguishes 1--56from thereat, as probably prefixed by a rhapsodist. K. Muller also (Hist. Gr. Lit. p. 98) says, "It is clear to every reader of the poem that the first 56 verses are taken out of the Eoiae, and only inserted because the poem itself had been handed down without an introduction." On the highly probably supposition, that the 'Shield of Hercules' was composed in a much later age than Hesiod's, we may still have in this prooemium a considerable fragment of a genuine lost poem. 2. ixtra with an accusative necessarily means 'after, ' or 'following Amphitryon.' We should have rather expected 7' was doubtless a mere metrical insertion.--"Apriv seems a later form of the accusative, which was Ap7j at least in early Greek. Hermann proposed "Apr)', which is a common form in Homer. See Theog. 922.--&tov 'insatiable.' According to analogy, this should be contracted from odT-os, since the double a exists in the non-privative root daa. Cf. aarai inf. v. 101. Buttmann however (Lexil. in v.) distinguishes acta, ' to hurt, ' whence dd-ros, from aa, ' to satiate, ' whence dros and ddi-os, remarking that d only becomes ad when originally contracted. The quantity of the a is made doubtful by dd-ros in Theog. 714. Apollonius has ddros SjSpis, i. 459. 61. The reading of MS. Harl. (O) points to a variant lrrSn' elvl cUcpptp.--txTimov, the second aorist of tcrvTriw, is proper...
