Extract

In this article I shall argue that Od. 11.92, omitted by nearly all our MSS., is an interpolation. This position is far from being a new one, but a return to the question may perhaps be justified by the fact that the line was defended by M. van der Valk in 1949, printed by W.B. Stanford in his text without comment in 1959 and unquestioningly accepted as genuine by D.J. Stewart in 1976. However, the main purpose of this article will be to emend the V scholium on Od. 11.91 and to show that – whatever its precise text – it provides further testimony against line 92.
