Abstract

Dieses Werk bietet die Texte mit Einleitung und Kommentar von fünf Oden Pindars. Drei davon feiern Siege, die von äginetischen Athleten an den Nemeischen Spielen errungen wurden (4, 6 und 8). Die anderen zwei Oden gehören zum Anhang des Buches: Nem. 10, für den argivischen Ringkämpfer Theaios und seine Familie, und Nem. 11, auf den Prytanen Aristagoras aus Tenedos. In den Kommentaren wird sowohl über Probleme der Metrik und Textkritik als auch über den Stil, den Mythos und den historischen Hintergrund diskutiert. This work provides new editions with introduction and commentary of five odes from Pindar's Nemeans. Three celebrate victories won by Aeginetans at the Nemean games (Nemeans 4, 6, and 8). The remaining two are drawn from the appendix to the book: Nemean 10, for the Argive wrestler Theaeus and his family, including the famous myth of the Dioscuri, and Nemean 11, for the installation of a prytanis on the island of Tenedos. The commentaries elucidate problems of metre, text, and interpretation, and provide up-to-date treatment of the language and subject-matter of the poems.

Abstract

One of the foremost scholars of his day, the German classicist August Böckh (1785-1867) was chosen by the Berlin Academy of Sciences as the first editor of the monumental Corpus inscriptionum graecarum. Before that he had published this groundbreaking edition of the extant works of the Greek poet Pindar (c.522-c.443 BCE) in two volumes, the second being split into two parts. This first volume, published in 1811, contains the only complete surviving works of Pindar, the victory odes (Epinikia), written to celebrate athletic successes at the Olympic and other games. In addition to the editor's Latin preface and critical notes, this volume also contains his important treatise on Pindarian metrics, De metris Pindari, in which he establishes a close connection between Greek music and verse, elucidating the Greeks' own statements about rhythm and providing a systematic basis for the study of Greek verse.
