Abstract

Abstract:In this paper we challenge a staple of modern scholarship, which considers Hippias' Synagogé as the first instance of Greek doxographical work. In this article, I offer a fresh analysis of the relevant ancient texts and of the state of scholarship. The result of this investigation casts doubt on the real nature and scope of Hippias' Synagogé as a mere collection of passages. I argue that this usually taken for granted interpretation does not capture what the Synagogé may have been. By contrast, I suggest restoring the entertaining nature and rhetorical strategy that lie at the heart of Hippias' literary effort.

希比阿的犹太教:一个史学上的误解?

摘要:在本文中，我们挑战现代学术的一个主要内容，即认为希比阿的《犹太法典》是希腊文献著作的第一个实例。在这篇文章中，我对相关的古代文本和学术状况进行了新的分析。这项调查的结果使人们对希比阿的犹太会堂的真实性质和范围产生怀疑，因为它仅仅是一个段落的集合。我认为，这种通常被视为理所当然的解释并没有捕捉到犹太会堂可能是什么样子的。相比之下，我建议恢复娱乐性和修辞策略，这是希比阿文学努力的核心。
