Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Philodemi Volumina Rhetorica
Praeter exempla Neapolitana musei regu Borbonici apographa illa, quae Oxonii adservantur, adhibui. At que insigni, qua solet esse, benignitate Theodorus Gom perz, horum studiorum facile primus, sua mihi apo grapha, quae Oxonii facienda curaverat, concessit, ut iam antequam exirent ectypa photographa Herculanean papym' Bodleùm facsimiles), illis uti possem. Ectypa ipsa tune demum contuli, cum magna pars voluminisprimi iam in officinam missa erat. Quae tamen, quoad potni, contuli accurate. Fit enim, ut vel acutissimo oculo et Optima luce singula legi non possint, cum et tabularum perspicuitas satis sit diversa, et quae mar gini subiecta saepe apparent, luce deficiente paene obliterentur. Accedebat quod Gomperzii apographa satis accurate instituta ila non magnopere emendari videbam, minora autem velut A et A sive 1 et T im mutatae plerumque multo ante expediebantur. Com memorandum denique duas papyr0s partem libri se cundi et partem quarti continentes iam 1825 Oxonii in Herculanensium Voluminum tomo II p. 1 - 1 16 publice propositas esse.
