  • Preface

    This edition owes a debt of gratitude to many benefactors: to Prof. Hartmut Erbse, who first suggested the project to me and who provided unfailing counsel and support for it during the more than twenty years since its inception; to the Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung, which awarded a generous stipend enabling me to carry on work on this edition in the admirably equipped Philologische Seminar of the Univer-sitt Bonn during the academic year 1980 81 and in the following summers through 1989; to Frau Dr. E. Mathiopoulou, Herr E. Bark-hausen, Frau J. Neuloh and Frau G. Sauerberg for the various ways in which they made my work in Bonn pleasant and efficient; to Prof. Rudolf Kassel for his interest in my work and for fruitful discussion of difficulties in the text, especially those related to the comic frag-ments; to all those who reviewed or gave me the benefit of comments on the first volume of this work, W. Bhler, E. Duke, A. Garzya, Richard Kannicht, F. Montanari and E. Trapp; to Prof. Klaus Alpers for penetrating criticism of an earlier draft; to Dirk Obbink for bibli-ographical advice; to Nigel Wilson for advice (again) on palaeographi-cal matters; to the custodians of the manuscripts for permission to publish the results of my investigation; to my colleague David Blank for initiating me into the mysteries of computers and fruitful discussion of problems; to Catherine Schlegel for help in correcting the indices and source-indications in the margins; to my wife Janis for her consi-deration and understanding during the long gestation of this work; to the de Gruyter Verlag for its efficiency and care in handling a complex manuscript; and last, but by no means least, to Prof. Alexander Kleinlogel, who has contributed to this volume far more than anyone has a right to expect of a series editor; he not only developed a program for converting the complicated manuscript of this work and the Lexicon from my Macintosh format to the system in use by the de Gruyter Verlag but also selflessly sacrificed many hours of his time to improve this volume in both method of presentation and content. To all of the above I express heartfelt thanks; the faults that remain are mine alone.

  • 1. The Author

    In the prior volume a case was made for authorship of our work by George Choeroboscus; it was based upon similarities of doctrine between the Ep. Horn, and works known to have been written by Choeroboscus, the agreement in date and Choeroboscus' authorship (which is no longer disputed1) of the Epimerismi in Psalmos, similar in plan and complemen-tary in doctrine to the Ep. Horn.2 Here I would like to offer some further evidence of the same kind. Though none of these indices is decisive in itself, taken together they create, I think, a probability bordering on certainty that Choeroboscus was the author.

    The plan of the Ep. Horn, does not allow the author much scope for personal utterances.3 Moreover, as has been observed in the prior volume (pp. 5 6), the first personal pronoun is ordinarily merely retained by our author from his source.4 This is, however, characteristic of Choero-boscus.5 Moreover, there are several first person statements which are of interest in themselves. There are, for instance, the unaltered first person and unaltered cross-reference of Choeroboscus (512, o 13, 56, referring respectively to Th. 1,149, 25 or 2, 203, 2 and 2, 83,19 and 25). It is difficult to say who might be the grammarian of 128 who puts forward with such confidence his own view in opposition to that of or the grammarian who disagrees with Herodian at 53. Choeroboscus would certainly fit, however, since he does not hesitate to disagree with Herodian on other occasions.6

    It would be idle to list all the many passages in which the Ep. Horn, agree with Choeroboscus in doctrine. What is of interest is a passage like Ep. ad A 26 B, 60 62, where a prosodical doctrine of Herodian (1, 156, 16. 2,927,4) is adapted to orthographical purposes, just as at

    1 Cf. W. Bhler and Chr. Theodoridis, Johannes von Damaskos terminus post quem fr Choiroboskos, BZ 69, 1976, 399, n. 10; Reitzenstein, Gesch., pp. 2 0 5 - 6 , n. 4; Cohn, RE 3, 2 (1899), 2366, 9 ff.

    2 Ep. ad A, pp. 5 - 7 , 3 5 - 3 6 . 3 Cf., however, the unexpected (personal?) observation at 149:

    . 4 Further examples: the Herodianic first person retained at 31 and 24. 5 Cf., e.g., Th. 2, 330, 910 (retention of Herodianic first person). 6 Cf., e.g., Th. 1, 225, 29. 313, 2. 325,1. 407, 23. 2, 53, 9. 336, 31, where he takes the

    side of Ap. Dysc. against Herodian; in 1,322,19 he points out that Herodian contradicts himself; on the other hand, he defends Herodian against critics at 2, 32, 32.

  • 24 Epimerismi Homerici

    Choer. Ep. Ps. 43,33. In other words, the passages of Ep. Horn, and Ep. Ps. exhibit the same method. But an even closer link is suggested by 40, which shares with Ep. Ps. 153,8 the substitution of for in a quotation of 187.7 Compare further Ep. Horn, 94 with Ep. Ps. 85, 33: Ep. Horn, presents the doctrine : , ; in Ep. Ps. Choeroboscus begins with the same information: . ; , , . . . , . . . ; but then he adds two more meanings, which he evidently found in Orus, , but without correcting the .

    So far the similarities discussed are such that they could be accounted for simply by Choeroboscus' use of Ep. Horn, as a source in the composi-tion of Ep. Ps. However, the two works complement each other in such a way as to make it likely that they were written in tandem by the same author. Thus, rules and definitions spelled out in one are merely alluded to in the other. In addition to the examples given at Ep. ad A, pp. 35 36, note that Ep. Horn, 23 alludes to the three meanings of spelled out at Ep. Ps. 78, 30.

    Finally, the possibility deserves careful consideration that in five places where Choeroboscus is cited in later works the reference is, in fact, to a passage of the Ep. Horn.: 1) The grammatical excerpt printed at AO 4,408, 7 attributes to Choero-boscus an etymology of from not attested in his preserved writings; Hilgard assigned it to Choeroboscus' commentary on Herodian's ,8 but one wonders if it might, in fact, be a reference to Ep. Horn, 71. 2) Et. Gen. s. . has at the end (in A only) this reference: (sic); if this is a reference to Ep. Horn, 143, we should read . . . (). 3) EM 800, 5 (s. . ) cites Choeroboscus as source for material identical to that in Ep. Horn, 6 but not found, so far as I can see, in this form elsewhere. 4) At Et. Gen. s. v. there is a reference to Choeroboscus for material very similar to that preserved at Ep. Horn, 14; might this be the place the author of Et. Gen. had in mind? 5) Et.Sym. V = D as cited by Gaisford ad EM 801,19 contains at the end of the entry s. v. the notation " ; if the is a mistake for , I suggest that this is a citation of the and refers to Ep. Horn, 14.9

    7 The substitution appears also in EM 342, 34, which depends on Ep. Horn. 8 Gr. Gr. 4 ,1 , LXXXIV, 3 2 - 3 4 . 9 Cf. also n. 16 below.

    2. Purpose of the Work

    Lehrs and Reitzenstein already saw that the Ep. Horn, were composed with a view to the exigencies of school instruction.10 A bit of the ethos of the late antique/Byzantine school shines through some passages, I think. We see, for instance, the self-image of the teacher as a priest initiating his charges into mysteries in the etymology of at Ep. Horn, 80: . . . , . Likewise there is a specimen of the schoolmas-ter's humor at his own expense at 3, where is defined as .11 A large part of the transactions of the classroom took, of course, the form of question-and-answer exchanges between teacher and pupils. This aspect of the enterprise is also reflected in Ep. Horn., albeit in some versions more than in others.12 Thus, for instance, at 1 the definition = is followed by the question and command: ; . Then follows the citation of I 358 to illustrate the posited meaning. Similarly, 134 provides the answer "whenever the problem is posed to you" ( ) as to the meaning of the .

    The last example also illustrates another function of the Ep. Horn, related to the needs of the school, namely to inculcate the meanings of basic grammatical terms.13 Tzetzes ad Hes. Opp. 285 provides a clear picture of the earliest stages of Byzantine grammatical instruction: , , -, , , - -14 . . .15 This sequence makes it clear why in connection

    11 It is but a short step from here to the complaints of the fourth ptochoprodromic poem.

    12 In general, such material tends to be absent from the earlier versions (G, Et. Gud.) but present in the latest (O).

    13 Some examples: ( 12), ( 35), ( 27), ( 50), ( 57); usually these are not separate lemmata, but cf. 65 (). Choeroboscus' other writings show this same tendency: cf. Th. 1,131, 5 () or 1,157, 21 ( vs. ).

    with the study of Homer (par excellence ) it was necessary to drill and illustrate the just learned grammatical categories of Dionysius Thrax and the rules of Theodosius for declension and conjugation. It was evidently thought desirable also to add a fairly large dose of Herodianic prosodical rules at this stage.16 These elements plus etymological informa-tion drawn primarily from Orion and some exegetical material from scholia account in general for the character of the main series of glosses of the Ep. Horn. This core was later expanded by interpolations added independently and from different sources in the two branches of the tradition (G/Et. Gud. and O; cf. below no. 4 "Sources").

    ) Description

    For the other witnesses cf. Ep. ad A 16 ff. On the basis of my inspection of O (now housed in the Bodleian) in May, 1992, a few observations can be added to Ludwich's description (AHT 2,609 12). A volume of miscellaneous, mostly Homeric content, O contains the following note in its flyleaf: "This Book was given by Mr. Wm. Terrers (formerly alumnus) a Turkey merchant of London A . D . 1633. The MS is of the 14th Century." The following are the contents according to the current pagina-tion (see Ludwich for further detail):

    1) fol. 1 8: Tzetzes, Homeric Allegories, by the scribe of the text of O (as Ludwich, 1.1., 609, had observed); 2) fol. 9 - 1 0 9 : the Iliad with scholia; fol. 57 is left free (dated by Ludwich, ibid., at the latest to the beginning of the 14th century); 3) fol. 110 21: continuation of Tzetzes, Homeric Allegories, in the same hand as before; 4) fol. 122 28: scholia to Iliad A B, in the same hand as no. 2; Ludwich, 1.1., 610, dates this part (with a query) to the 16th century on grounds of newer paper and a very young hand; 5) fol. 129: left free apart from an on the verso (by the scribe of 9 b below); ) fol. 130 143v: Ep.Hom. to beginning of A (fol. 138 is left free);

    16 To revert briefly to the problem of authorship: it would make sense for Choero-boscus, who wrote commentaries on Dionysius Thrax and Theodosius, as well as the Ep. Ps., to have completed the cycle of "aids for the schoolteacher" by composing the Ep. Horn, as well.

    7) fol. 143v 149r: Heraclitus, Homeric Allegories (by the same scribe); 8) fol. 149r 250r: Ep. Horn, in lexicon form (by the same scribe; the beginning of this text is falsely marked at 149v, whereas it had actually resumed 1/3 of the way down 149r with the words .; the gloss on follows); 9) fol. 250v 255v (end): ; incip.: . (by the same scribe through 253v, thereafter a new scribe, with a more careless hand and using black rather than brown ink, takes over; see no. 5).

    The manuscript is thus the work of a team of three scribes, responsible respectively for (1) 1, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9 a; (2) 2, 4 and most of the marginalia in 6; and (3) 5 and 9 b. The text of the Iliad and of Tzetzes' Allegories differ from the other items by being in double-column format. The main text of the Ep. Horn, (as of the other contributions of the same scribe) is written in a brown ink; in the Ep. Horn, the initial letters of glosses are highlighted with red. The paper containing written text is, pace Ludwich, uniform throughout. The present numeration postdates binding in a single volume; there is evidence of a previous numeration beginning at fol. 130 of the following material (to the end) as a separate item.

    Ludwich's datings of paper and scripts within this codex need revision. Foil. 57 and 255 share a bell-shaped watermark similar to no. 3027 Mosin Traljic and dated by them to 1388;17 according to N. G. Wilson's analysis of the quires (quoted Ep. ad A, p. 19), fol. 57 is part of a 12-leaf gathering and joins with fol. 52, containing the Homeric text dated by Ludwich at the latest to the beginning of the 14th century. Ludwich's dating of our scribe is probably on palaeographical grounds a bit too early: note the writing of with standing on top of o, as in cod. Vat. gr. 616 (a little after 1354)18 or the exuberant bow for - and trailing tails of - and -, as in cod. Reg. gr. 181 (A.D. 1364).19 Nor is Ludwich's suggested date (16th century with a query) likely for no. 4 (by the scribe O2) in view of the fact that the watermark at foil. 123, 125, 127 and 129 is similar to the inscribed balance no. 896 Mosin Traljic and there dated to 1396. Indeed, probably the written folios are roughly contemporaneous and belong to the very end of the 14th century. One might be tempted to regard scribe (3) as an exception; Ludwich thought 9 b added later (fol. 255 lacks the expected page no. [sc. 302] of the original numeration). Note, however, that fol. 255 contains the same

    bell-shaped watermark as fol. 57 (see above). Also, though this scribe writes more carelessly, a fact which might incline one to date him a bit later, the hand is not so young, e.g., as that of Par. Suppl. 1278 (1442), which shows ligature with , a rising well above the line, etc.20 However, the last (blank) leaf may have been added at the time of binding, since fol. 257 has a watermark similar to nos. 12755 (1581) and 12804 (1588) Briquet.21

    b) Relation of Witnesses

    The analysis of the relations of the witnesses, at pp. 22 27 of the prior volume can, in general, stand; however, it does need to be augmented at certain points where the Ep. ad A provided insufficient evidence to make it possible to draw firm conclusions.

    The variant-carrier a of the hyparchetype is reconstructed from and Et. Gud. (see stemma, Ep. ad A, p. 25). I offer here a collection of evidence from this volume to lend further support to the relations there set forth. The following are separative errors of a against : 22, 27 28: ' (in corr. Cr.)

In addition, O can be shown to be independent of and Et. Gud. individually. O's independence of is indicated by the following errors of against : 29, 81: O : ; 44, 72 73: : ; 58, 61: : om. per homoeotel. ; 81, 11: d : () ; 82, 30: : (ex confusione compendiorum) ; 94, 7 8: d : om. ; 100, 68: : O c : '

    Moreover, within a, Et. Gud. is not merely copied from P, as the following errors of against Et.Gud. attest (I had previously been able to adduce only three errors, none decisive [Ep. ad A, p. 25]): 42, 51: O d : ; 69, 34 35: ' d : om. per homoeotel. ; 97, 52: d : om. ; 104, 8: d : (sic) : ; 137, 6: d : ; ibid., 11 12: , d : om. per homoeotel. ; ibid., 17: d : ; 141, 37: d : ; 147, 79: d : ; 152, 94: d : om.

    The b variant-carrier of the hyparchetype is reconstructed from two witnesses, G and Et. Gud. (see stemma, Ep. ad A, p. 27). The independ-ence of the one remaining witness that can be compared, namely O,22 is shown by a number of errors of b which the scribe of O could not easily correct, viz.: o 23, 49: O : om. (per homoeotel.?) b; o 74, 35 36: " {} " ( 649) : om. b; 34, 34: : - b; ibid., 35: : b; 50, 50: : b; 74, 26 27: : om. b; 27,10: : b; 28, 16 17: : b; 4, 25: : b; 6, 80: : om. d et (ut ex spatio conclusi) G; 11, 23 24: alt.

Some of these errors ( 6, 5 and 14) suggest that b may already have tended to curtail quotations.

    We come next within the b hyparchetype to the relations of G and Et. Gud. In attempting to separate them, I previously adduced three errors of G against Gud. (Ep. ad A, pp. 25 26); but those errors were of such a character that an intelligent scribe could have corrected them. In the meantime, K. Alpers has presented a fairly strong case that the

    archetype of Gud. (d) was copied in the latter half of the tenth century;23 it therefore could not depend upon G (ca. 1100; cf. Ep. ad A, pp. 20 22). However, in case the new dating should be questioned, the following errors of G against Gud. could not have been easily corrrected by a scribe (i.e., the correct reading could not be inferred from context): 61, 40 41: , , , d : om. per homoearcton G; 2, 12 13: - Od : om. per homoeotel.

    In view of the new chronological relations, however, it becomes impor-tant to establish the independence of G from Gud.

    Finally, a brief characterization of the scribe of G. His great merit is that, though capable of trivializing errors,24 he tends to copy what he sees in front of him, including the abbreviations, whereas it is precisely the attempt to resolve these that is so often the undoing of the scribe of O (cf. Ep. ad A, p. 20). On the other hand, G is not without his faults; in general, syntax is not his forte,25 and he is largely oblivious of the distinction between o and .26 Moreover, he is well aware that the parchment he is using is valuable, and he makes every effort to conserve it, both by reducing the size of the margins (cf. Ep. ad A, p. 21) and, where necessary, curtailing the extent of the text. He thus carries further b's tendency to eliminate illustrative and explanatory material.27

  • 34 Epimerismi Homerici

    4. Sources

    The Epimerismi Homerici are transmitted in two forms, commentary and lexicon, of which the latter was created out of the former by combining the commentaries to Homer , and A (in that order): cf. Ep. ad A, pp. 8ff . Pages 27 33 of the prior volume treat paradigmatically the sources of one component of the lexicon of the Ep. Horn., namely the commentary to Homer A. A similar analysis applies mutatis mutandis to the commentaries to and ; for details see the index fontium.28 Besides the glosses of the commentary to , and A, the lexicon of Ep. Horn, also includes a supplement which was ordinarily added after the commen-tary on A, i.e., at the end of the commentary for each letter of the alphabet. The two branches of the tradition, b (reconstructed from G and Et. Gud.) and O, differ markedly in the content of their respective supplements.29 It is the source of these two supplements that I shall explore here.

    The supplement in b consists largely of short glosses of etymological character; the following is a complete list with an asterisk marking those with a close counterpart in Et. Gen.: t 61, 62, 63, 64, 65*, 66*, 67*; 103, 104, 105, 106, 107*, 108*, 109*, 110*, 111, 112*, 113*, 114*, 31, 51*, 52, 53*, 54, 55*, 56*, 57*, 58*, 59, 28, 29*, 30*, 31*, 32*, 33*, 34*, 8*, 9*, 10*, 92, 93, 94*, 95, 96*, 101*, 102*, 103*, 7*, 8*, 9*, 10*, 11*, 32*, 40*, 41*, 42*, 46, 47, 48*, 49, 50*, 51*, 52*, 15, 16*, 17*, 18*, 19, 20*, 21*, 22*, 23, 24*, 25*, 26*, 27*, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 26, 27, 28, 2*, 3, 4*, 5*, 6*, 7*, 16, 17*, 18*, 19*, 20*.

    The degree of relation of these glosses to Et. Gen. is striking; apart from the Methodius-glosses of a , there is no parallel for it in the Ep. Horn.

    28 Note also that another ninth-century source can now be added, viz. Michael Syncellus: cf. H.-G. Beck, Kirche und theologische Literatur im byzantinischen Reich, Handbuch der Altertumswissenschaften 12, 2, 1, Munich 1959, p. 503.

  • Introduction 35

    Moreover, these are glosses which Et. Gen. itself has derived from a variety of sources (sch. Horn., Herodian, Et. Orion., , etc.). What is the explanation? In view of the errors of Et. Gud. against G in this sector (see pp. 32 33 above) and the fact that the scribe of the main text of Et. Gud. (in contrast to the scribe who added the marginalia) very rarely used the Et. Gen. as a source,30 a relation Et. Gen. - Gud. - G seems most unlikely.31 More probably, in this fairly unremarkable group of glosses the basic source relation b G/Gud. remains unaltered.

    A hypothesis that would account for the phenomena so far described would be Gen. -> b - G/Gud. , with allowance made for the interpolation of a handful of glosses of other provenance ( 31, 19, 26 27, 3, 16), especially at the beginning of the supplement i.e., glosses which might have been present already in the archetype but lost in O's exemplar and hence were not the special property of b; these strictures would apply to 31, 26 27 and 16. Another possibility would be that the scribe of b first exploited other sources before using Et. Gen. (cf. the Et. Orion., composed from a fixed number of sources used in a set order); hence in certain letters of the alphabet (viz. , , ) the scribe of b did not use the Et. Gen. at all.

    What are the possible objections? An obvious problem would be any errors of Et. Gen. against Gud./G. I have discovered only one serious error, namely the omitted citation of H 241 s. v. , a gloss which, however, is transmitted in A alone; hence the scribe of A might have omitted material transmitted in other versions of Et. Gen., whence b could have taken it; or the quotation could have been added suo Marte by the scribe of b.

    Another possible objection arises f rom the source-indications for two glosses in d, ( = Ep. Horn, 62), which bears the siglum and the gloss ( = Ep. Horn, 31), which has a siglum connecting it with Io. Dam. can. iamb. 3; if one takes them seriously, they would seem to speak against the relation b - Gud. in these cases. But the credibility of these sigla depends on whether they were written by the scribe of the main text of d, since only he knew his sources with certainty.32 In view

    30 Of the ca. 25 pp. of text of Et. Gud. edited by Reitzenstein, Gesch., pp. 109 36, only two of the glosses which he assigns to Et. Gen. as source are a) glosses in the main text, b) not Methodius glosses and c) still attributed to the Et. Gen. by De Stefani (viz., , ; a third, , he assigns to Et. Gen. with a question mark following).

    31 Note, too, the absence from Et. Gud. (at least in the manuscript sources to which I have access) of the following glosses: ( 31), ( 19), ( 28) and ( 27); hence in this respect, too, the hypothesis of Gud. as intermediary source is problematic.

    32 Cf. De Stefani, BZ 16,1907, 55; Ep.Hom. I, pp. 14f.

  • 36 Epimerismi Homerici

    of the form of the and its thickness the siglum for the gloss ' seems clearly to have been added by d1; since this gloss appears near the beginning of the i-supplement, I would assume the relation Eel. -> b Gud. /G and presume that the corrector inferred the more remote, rather than the immediate source (alternatively b and Gud. may both have preserved a source-indication omitted by G). The gloss stands in an alphabetical series which has no glosses from Et. Gen. in any case; hence it can either be explained mutatis mutandis in similar fashion to or on the assumption that the source-indication is correct and Et. Gen. not used in this section of the supplement (see above). On the other hand, note the gloss ( 103), which bears in Gud. the siglum Homeri (see Ep. ad A, p. 13) and therefore ought to derive from the Ep. Horn., as our hypothesis predicts.

    Still more interesting is the supplement to O, which uniquely preserves a number of ancient grammatical doctrines and poetic (and other) quota-tions. How did these learned materials survive to the 12th century (the date at which we have the first indication of the use of a version of Ep. Horn, including O's supplement [see pp. 45 46 below])? I am going to argue that the supplement in O, like that in G, derives essentially f rom a single source.

    First it should be made clear that there is an intermediary source, i.e., that the redactor of the recension of Ep. Horn, that first included O's supplement was not working with the texts of the grammarians themselves. One can see this perhaps most clearly in the glosses pertaining to preposi-tions. Here we encounter some very learned material which may well derive from Apollonius Dyscolus, : common to our material and the (relatively meager) preserved fragments are an interest in demarcation between prepositions and other parts of speech, including problems of anastrophe (a 264, 142; . Dysc. 3, 133 ff. and 135, 38 f.; cf. 85); formal characteristics of prepositions (a 293; Ap. Dysc. 3, 136, 41 ff.); the sense of the preposition, including the sense ( 1 0 9 - 1 0 ; . Dysc. 3,137, 35 ff.; cf. a 95, 105 and 118); Apollonian terminology, such as likewise appears ( 148; cf. Schneider's index s.v.). Such sophisticated argumentation was well over the head of the compiler, who was merely interested in extracting the "notable points" ( ) about the various prepositions (cf., e.g., ad 148, 142), as he was similarly interested in excerpting concerning pronouns (cf. 249, 301, 66 and 72). Note, too, that the redactor of Ep. Horn, is using a source which has already aug-mented the original text with Christian examples (cf. 61, 109 110).

    In terms of their content, the glosses of the supplement in O can at first glance be divided into two groups: exegetical notes and grammatical

  • Introduction 37

    excerpts. The exegetical glosses pertain largely to Homer, but also to other poets, including Hesiod ( 164, 43, 84, 38), Aristophanes ( 167, 42, 37), Euripides ( 27) and others ( 7 and possibly 22), as well as to Herodotus ( 86, 179). The Homeric lemmata are not confined to the first three books of the Iliad but range freely over both poems. In some cases it is, of course, impossible to determine what specific passage the gloss originally referred to (cf., e.g., 16). However, in many cases we are helped by the fact that the excerptor has inserted, immediately after the lemma, a quotation of the context from which the vox glossando has been taken. That these quotations immediately following the lemmata were added mechanically later and not originally part of the gloss is clear from the glosses 292, 69 and 23, in which the same passage is quoted twice, once immediately following the lemma and once as part of the argument. The quotations immediately following the lemmata, then, have been added in the process of excerpting to indicate the passage to which they referred in the excerptor's source. Furthermore some glosses which appear at first to be purely grammatical excerpts turn out on closer inspection to have passed through an exegetical filter; so, for instance, the gloss on ( 103), which was applied to 152, as the quotation following the lemma shows.

    Now the overwhelming majority of the glosses in which quotation follows immediately after lemma refer to Homeric passages. Indeed, the source for these seems very likely to have been arranged originally in the form of a Homeric commentary.33 However, as we have seen, the source of the redactor of the O-supplement also contains non-Homeric glosses. The combination of these two disparate elements is very likely to have occurred only after the work had been altered from commentary to lexicon form.

    The Herodianic , like the source of the O-supplement, included not only Homeric but also non Homeric glosses.34 Thus the attributed to Herodian are the only work known to have been available in the Byzantine period that matches the characteristics of the O-supplement: an exegetical work on Homer which was expanded (perhaps after rearrangement as a lexicon) to include other elements.

    Other indicators also point to the Herodianic as the source of the O-supplement. Seven of the glosses of O's supplement are independently attested for this work, namely the following:

    33 Cf. o 96, 15, an evident cross-reference from the Iliadic to the Odyssean part of the commentary.

    These glosses all pertain to voces Homericae, and two of them ( 71, 150) include the quotation of the relevant Homeric passage immediately after the lemma.

    Now if the attribution of the O-supplement to the Herodianic - is correct,36 there are several consequences. One of these has to do with the "doublet glosses" of the lexicon of Ep. Horn. There are a few cases in which the Ep. Horn, preserve two glosses on the same lemma, one among the glosses of the commentary to the first three books of the Iliad or the original supplement to the archetype of the Ep. Horn., the other in O's supplement. If we assume that O's supplement derives f rom Hdn. Ep., then in the case of two of these doublets s. v. ( 135 and 275) and ( 12 and 27) we can say that both glosses derive from Hdn. Ep.: for Ep. Horn, 135, which, since it is preserved in Et. Gud., belongs to the supplement to the archetype, is attested for Hdn. Ep. (fr. 47 D.); the same is true of 12 (fr. 46 L.), which belongs to the commentary on 248. The content of each member of the pair is essentially the same; the difference is that the commentary gloss and the gloss from the supplement to the archetype have been curtailed and watered down i.e., subjected to editing for the Byzantine school , whereas the glosses of the supplement to O preserve ancient learning in a purer form.

    In 1981 I adduced evidence to show that Hdn. Ep. had served as a source for Ep. Horn, at all three stages of composition: 1) the commentary on Iliad , , A; 2) the supplement to the archetype; 3) the supplement to O.37 Now we are in a better position to understand how this came

    37 Hermes 109,1981, 233 35. Note, however, that if the hypothesis about the source of the O-supplement is correct, the following glosses edited in Ep. ad A can, on the basis of their order of occurrence in O, be vindicated for the pseudo-Herodianic Epimerismoi: Ep. ad 1 ( = 74), 1 B l a (Oab; = 298), 2B1 ( = 24), 2 C , a 2

    about. At the time of the formation of the archetype (9th 10th century) Hdn. Ep. was among the sources used,38 but the glosses borrowed were subjected to a thoroughgoing revision in usum scholarum, with unnecessary citations curtailed or eliminated entirely and complicated argumentation simplified. A copy of Hdn. Ep. did survive, however, albeit converted to lexicon form and interpolated. In perhaps the early 12th century this work came into the hands of the redactor of the O supplement, who interpolated glosses from it into his copy of Ep. Horn, and did so without regard to the glosses on the same lemmata already occurring in the Ep. Horn. This process will account, in general, for the relatively large number of repeated glosses in our work.39

    ( = 75), 3 ( = 7), 3D 1 ( = 157), 5 ( = o 106), 51 ( = 4), 7D 1 ( = 5), 9C (Oab; = o 107); 18C ( = 6), 19D1 ( = 8); 201 ( = 160), 23 ( = 299); 26C1 ( = 116), 44 C1 ( = 117), 45 ( = 22), 85D ( = 108), 203 ( = 9), 2291 ( = 41), 263 ( = 161), 317 ( = 118), 357 ( = 162), 462 ( = 110), 569 ( = 119), 575 ( = 120), 5 7 6 ( = 25).

    38 The precise extent can no longer be ascertained; I have ordinarily assumed use of Hdn. Ep. in the commentary on , , A and the supplement to the archetype only where we have explicit testimony, but it is likely to have been much more extensively used. Note 4243, which, I suspect, may derive from Hdn. Ep. ad 310; in 42 there would be no need for the quotation of pa as well as unless this was preserved from a source which quoted the entire line before glossing individual words (ordinarily, of course, the alphabetical arrangement of the Ep.

    Finally, if the hypothesis is correct that the O-supplement derives from Hdn. Ep., what, if anything, does this suggest about the authorship o f t h a t work? The consequence would be that the name Herodian traditionally attached to it has no real meaning. Surely this was already the case in the ninth century, when Choeroboscus wrote: . . . .

    If the Epimerismi Homerici were intended as a guide for schoolteachers, what evidence we have suggests that they were not a particularly popular or successful one, since they were copied into only three codices (although other copies can, of course, have perished). This restricted circulation can be accounted for in several ways. There were competing works, such as the pseudo Herodianic Schematismi Homerici, which, like the Ep. Horn., consisted largely of Herodianic excerpts explaining voces Homericae, as well as the Regulae in quasdam Homricas voces (- ) , in which the Ep. Horn, them-selves are pillaged (see pp. 47 48 below). Moreover, the premise of the Ep. Horn., namely that Homer should be the first text studied after pupils have mastered the elementary rules of grammar, is not a necessary or obvious one. Other texts closer in diction to the spoken language could be studied first, Homer later with the aid of the D-scholia. Thus Choero-boscus' Epimerismi in Psalmos achieved greater popularity, surviving in ten manuscripts.41 When the Ep. Horn, were revived in the 12th century
