Abstract
The fr. 391 K.-A. of the Athenian poet of the Old Comedy Eupolis is known to us through the so-called Antholognomicon (8, 10) of the grammarian Orion (5th century AD), or rather from what little remains of this anthology by the only testimony of the ff. 264-266v of the cod. Wien, Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, Phil. Gr. 321 (XIII-XIV century). The first verse of the fragment is however echoed by Julian the Apostate at the opening of the oration Against the Cynic Heraclius (Or. 7, 1, 204a) and by Gregory of Nazianzus in the first verse of poem II, 1,30 (De se ipso). The present paper aims to investigate the relationships between these three witnesses.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
