The scholia on Hecuba in the Comnenian Age: codices Vat. Gr. 1135 and Vat. Ott. Gr. 339

The paper examines the text of the scholia , mostly non yet edited, on Euripides’ Hecuba in the manuscript Vat. gr. 1135 and its apographon , with the aim of placing it within the textual tradition. The analysis of some scholia allows ascribing the most part of this material to the scholarly exegesis of the twelfth century, shedding light on the state of the Euripidean scholia after the eleventh century, which is the period to which the veteres manuscripts date back, but before the Palaeologan age.
