Byzantium, Venice and the Medieval Adriatic
  • Spheres of Maritime Power and Influence, c. 700-1453

  • The Adriatic has long occupied a liminal position between different cultures, languages and faiths. This book offers the first synthesis of its history between the seventh and the mid-fifteenth century, a period coinciding with the existence of the Byzantine Empire which, as heir to the Roman Empire, lay claim to the region. The period also saw the rise of Venice and it is important to understand the conditions which would lead to her dominance in the late Middle Ages. An international team of historians and archaeologists examines trade, administration and cultural exchange between the Adriatic and Byzantium but also within the region itself, and makes more widely known much previously scattered and localised research and the results of archaeological excavations in both Italy and Croatia. Their bold interpretations offer many stimulating ideas for rethinking the entire history of the Mediterranean during the period.

  • The entry π 196 of Hesychius is textually corrupt. This note challenges the traditional way of explaining the corruption and emending the text, which goes back to Marcus Musurus (1514), and replaces it with a simpler and more economical approach.

  • NEGLECTED EVIDENCE FOR ARISTOTLE, HISTORIA ANIMALIVM 7(8) IN THE WORKS OF ANCIENT HOMERIC SCHOLARS

  • Robert Mayhew
  • Journal:
    The Classical Quarterly / Volume 71 / Issue 1 / May 2021
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    26 March 2021, pp. 442-446

  • This brief article aims to supplement Stefan Schnieders's presentation of the evidence for Historia animalium 7(8)—that is, Book 7 according to the manuscript tradition, Book 8 according to Theodore Gaza's rearrangement—having been considered the seventh book of this work in antiquity. This is accomplished through the discussion of two texts not considered by Schnieders, both of them passages commenting on Iliad Book 21: P.Oxy. 221 (col. X 11–14) and Porphyry, Homeric Questions Book 1 (§8, page 43.8–14 Sodano).

  • TEXTUAL NOTES ON PS.-DIOSCORIDES, ON SIMPLES

  • John G. Fitch
  • Journal:
    The Classical Quarterly / Volume 71 / Issue 1 / May 2021
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    23 March 2021, pp. 285-291
    Print publication:
    May 2021

  • This article discusses the text of the work On Simples attributed to Dioscorides. It argues that in fifteen places the transmitted text is faulty, and it proposes emendations. It also studies certain types of insertions made in the text by its most recent editor, Max Wellmann, and concludes that they are unnecessary. Finally, it discusses two points where On Simples sheds light on Dioscorides’ De materia medica.

  • This note identifies the source of a brief quotation in Cassiodorus, Institutiones 1.28.3 as a passage of Lactantius, Diuinae Institutiones 3.28.22. It argues that Cassiodorus possibly intended to draw an implicit comparison between himself and Lactantius.
