Volume 1 contains writings by Zenobius, Diogenianus, Plutarchus, and Gregorius Cyprius. A critical apparatus for each text cites variant readings between manuscripts; a running Latin commentary is given below the critical apparatus; and a Latin preface, written by Schneidewin, introduces the volume and explains the editorial methods underlying the work. The Corpus has long been considered the definitive collection of Greek paroemiography and is still used as a model of textual editing by researchers  today. Unsurpassed in its breath and scope, it remains an indispensable tool for students and scholars of the Greek proverbial tradition. It ranks as one of the outstanding achievements of nineteenth-century scholarship.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eZenobius\u003cbr\u003e Diogenianus\u003cbr\u003e Plutarchus\u003cbr\u003e Plutarchi Eclogae proverbiorum a Boissonado editae\u003cbr\u003e Gregorius Cyprius\u003cbr\u003e Appendix Proverbiorum Vaticana, Bodleiana, Coisliniana\u003cbr\u003e Indices\u003cbr\u003e Addenda.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: classical, early \u0026amp; medieval [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: classical, early \u0026amp; medieval\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20classical,%20early%20\u0026amp;%20medieval%20%5BDSBB%5D%22\"\u003eDSBB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46265938772248,"sku":"9781108015530","price":43.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108015530i.jpg?v=1694869365","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/corpus-paroemiographorum-graecorum-volume-1-paroemiographi-graeci-zenobius-diogenianus-plutarchus-gregorius-cyprius-cum-appendice-proverbiorum-paperback-9781108015530","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
