Description



Book Synopsis



This volume contains Felix Jacoby's fundamental commentaries on the Greek ethnographers whose fragments he edited in FGrHist as numbers 609-708. They include, among others, commentaries on authors who wrote on Egypt, Babylonia and Persia. Jacoby wrote these commentaries while working on his edition, but was unable to finish them before his death. The commentaries explain many of Jacoby's editorial choices in the text edition and provide characterizations of the fragmentary authors and their works. They also contain invaluable interpretations of individual fragments. This volume continues the publication of Jacoby's posthumous commentaries, which was initiated by Charles Fornara in 1994.

Dieser Band enthält Felix Jacobys grundlegende Kommentare zu den griechischen Ethnographen, deren Fragmente er in FGrHist unter den Nummern 609-708 herausgegeben hat. Dazu gehören unter anderem Kommentare zu Autoren, die über Ägypten, Babylonien und Persien geschrieben haben. Jacoby verfasste diese Kommentare während der Arbeit an seiner Edition, konnte sie jedoch vor seinem Tod nicht mehr fertigstellen. Die Kommentare erläutern viele von Jacobys editorischen Entscheidungen in der Edition und bieten Charakterisierungen der fragmentarischen Autoren und ihrer Werke. Sie enthalten zudem wertvolle Interpretationen einzelner Fragmente. Dieser Band setzt die Veröffentlichung von Jacobys posthumen Kommentaren fort, die 1994 von Charles Fornara begonnen wurde.
