By William Gunion Rutherford

Book Overview

Scholia Aristophanica is a comprehensive book that provides insight into the works of Aristophanes, a Greek playwright of the 5th century BC. The book contains a collection of comments and annotations, known as scholia, that have been preserved in the Codex Ravennas V2, a medieval manuscript that contains the complete works of Aristophanes. These scholia are written in Greek and provide valuable information on the meaning, context, and interpretation of Aristophanes' plays. The author, William Gunion Rutherford, was a renowned classicist and scholar of Greek literature, and his commentary on the scholia provides further analysis and understanding of Aristophanes' works.
