In the Wake of a Great Edition: Textual Notes on Sophocles’ Oedipus Tyrannos

Abstract

In our second article (for the previous one see SO 92, 2018, 57–64) we discuss the following textual issues in Oedipus Tyrannos: I. 31–34 we are in favour of Johnson’s and Musgrave’s ἰσούμενοί σ᾽. – II. 73–74 a grammatical analysis is applied to make the construction clear. – III. 360 we propose ἢ ’κπειρᾷ πλέον; – IV. 640 our solution is ⟨τάδε⟩ δυοῖν [ἀπο]κρίνας κακοῖν. – V. 1494 we suggest τοῖς ἴσα instead of τοῖς †ἐμοῖς†.
