دانلود کتاب Literary and non-literary papyri from the University of Michigan collection

Abstract: This is a papyrological dissertation, in which literary, sub-literary, and documentary texts are edited. Of the 14 texts included, 13 appear here for the first time (one is a reedition). Of the literary papyri, most are texts of the Iliad (six). Two are fragments of orators (Demosthenes In Aristocratem, and Isocrates Panegyricus, the latter being a reedition with a new fragment). Extensive fragments of a Byzantine papyrus codex of Scholia Minora to the Iliad (primarily book 5) make up the bulk of the sub-literary texts. The other two are a Ptolemaic multiplication table, and a fragmentary hypothesis to Euripides' Hippolytos Kalyptomenos. The third chapter contains a Byzantine excerpt from the Christmas narrative from Luke's gospel (Luke 2.1-7). The final chapter contains three previously unedited documentary papyri from the Ptolemaic period. The first is a fragmentary letter from the Zenon archive (247 B.C.). The second is an enteuxixs (a petition to the king) from a tax-farmer concerning non-payment of the apomoira (c. 200 B.C.). The last is a petition to a previously unknown strategos (second half of the second century B.C.).
