Commentum Cornuti in Persium (Bibliotheca scriptorum Graecorum et Romanorum Teubneriana)

by Wendell V. Clausen (Editor), James E.G. Zetzel

The Satires of the Roman poet Persius (34-62 CE) were already the object of scholarly attention in antiquity, although no ancient commentary survives. This BT-volume provides the first critical edition of the "Commentum Cornuti", a ninth-century commentary written in France, which supplies the best access to the remains of the ancient scholarly tradition on Persius.
