- Title
NOTES ON STATIUS, THEBAID 2.
- Authors
Gervais, Kyle
- Abstract
The recent edition of the Thebaid by Hall, Ritchie, and Edwards launched a successful attack on the communis opinio of a bipartite manuscript tradition, with one clearly superior family (represented by the ninth-century P [Puteanus] manuscript), and relatively few textual problems. In doing so, they underscored the need for renewed editorial work on the poem. Here I discuss five passages from Thebaid 2 that have not received adequate attention from editors.
