This is a scholarly edition of the scholia on Pindar's Epinician odes, edited by E. Abel. Scholia are ancient commentaries or annotations on classical texts, offering valuable insights into the meaning, context, and interpretation of the original work. Pindar, a renowned Greek lyric poet of the 5th century BCE, is celebrated for his victory odes, known as the Epinikia, composed in honor of athletes who triumphed in the Panhellenic Games.

This edition, based on a careful examination of manuscript sources, provides a critical text of the scholia, essential for scholars and students interested in classical literature, Greek poetry, and the reception of Pindar's work in antiquity. The scholia offer a window into the world of ancient literary criticism and provide invaluable information about the cultural, social, and religious contexts of Pindar's poetry.
