Publisher's Synopsis

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: .../cal ryij /cal 8l/cy. But the usual form of the adverbial phrase in the sermo familiarzls was ev 8l/cy (Ar. Eq. 258, Nub. 1332). This was also used in tragedy (Soph. Fr. 673), as well as simple 8l/cy (Eur. Fr. 834); but frequently also aim 8l/cy (Aesch. Eum. 610, Pind. P. 9.170). But Hermann's interpretation is fully as objectionable as _Iebb's. If we read the lines aloud, we must feel that 6pe pevos rrveovaav followed by ei 8% abu 8l/cy firveart (in the sense e/celm7 pevet ffivearL) is harsh, whereas if we read epel pevet avvofiaav, the rest of the verses is perfectly smooth and harmonious. And this is precisely the kind of a statement we should expect from the traditional chorus, which is certainly not ascribing to the maiden Electra such qualities as belong to the pevea rrvelovres 'Axa.Lo, I aovaav... /coi';rror' a1';0u, -(= 0"ret'xa). generally concede now, I believe, that dpiire in Aesch. Prom. 1 19 is indicative. Wecklein is an exception. He dismisses my explanation with a curt reference to eo1'8ea0' in 141 (the very passage I cited in support of the other view--the aorist is used both here and in 91, and in both passages the circumstances are different from 1 19); but he fails to call attention to the far more pertinent passage in which the sufferer reveals his identity to a later sympathizing visitor: rrvpbs Bporois 80r1'jp' epes Hpop170ea (612). Cp. 69 6peis 0eapa 8va0earov, 1093 eoopalis pl (11s if/c8L/ca vra'axw (which would probably have been considered an impera-tive, if the plural had been used). The Greeks did not use 6plire for i8ere, i8ea0e; moreover, they avoided ambiguity. An..."

Why are there so many typos in my paperback? The book descriptions we ask booksellers to display prominently warn that our books contain numerous typos. Most book sellers display our descriptions. But if they don't, unfortunately, there's nothing we can do. We created your book using OCR software that includes an automated spell check. Our OCR software is 99 percent accurate if the book is in good condition. However, with up to 6,000 characters per page, even one percent can be an annoying number of typos. We carefully proof read the books we expect to sell enough copies to cover the cost of proof reading. But that could add more than a thousand dollars to the cover price of the rest. And nobody wants to pay that. If you need to see the original text, you can download a copy for free. Why is the index and table of contents in my paperback missing (or not working)? The book descriptions we ask booksellers to display prominently warn that our books are not indexed. After we re-typeset and designed your book, the page numbers change so the old index and table of contents no longer work. Therefore, we usually remove them. Since many of our books only sell a couple of copies, manually creating a new index and table of contents could add more than a hundred dollars to the cover price. And nobody wants to pay that. If you need to see the original index, you can download a copy for free. Why are illustrations missing from my paperback? The book descriptions we ask booksellers to display prominently warn that our books are not illustrated. We typeset our classics paperbacks using OCR software. Therefore, they don't have illustrations. We would really like to manually scan and add the illustrations. But many of our books only sell a couple of copies so that could add hundreds of dollars to the cover price. And nobody wants to pay that. If you would like to see the original illustrations, however, you can download a scanned copy of the original book for free.Why is text missing from my paperback? The book descriptions we ask booksellers to display prominently warn that our books may be missing text. Unfortunately, all or part of a page is occasionally missing from our copy of a book. Or the paper may be so discolored from age that you can no longer read the type. We would really like to track down and buy multiple copies of those books to compare and manually proof read and correct any missing text. But many of our books only sell a couple of copies so that could add hundreds of dollars to the cover price. And nobody wants to pay that. If you would like to read the original scanned book, you can download a copy for free.
