Archilochus frs. 23, 93a–94, 98, 112–113 W.: New readings and interpretations

Abstract Various interpretative proposals in Archilochean fragments, transmitted either in inscriptions or papyri or a combination of the two, are collected in this paper. The notes attempt to introduce some different readings or supplements, occasionally conjectural, in order to show how, in the author’s view, the narrative should have progressed in a reasonable way. Naturally, to the extent that no new pieces are attached to the old ones, a definitive edition of these fragments is bound to remain more or less elusive.
