Book Description
Excerpt from Greek Literary Papyri, Vol. 1 of 2: Texts, Translations and Notes Menander, (3) all of Mime (despite its want of poetry), (4) a considerable number of fragments in lyric, iambic, elegiac and hexameter verse altogether, about four thousand two hundred lines of Greek poetry. The edition of these texts was originally undertaken by Mr. C. H. Roberts, Fellow of St. John's College, Oxford. Engaged in heavier labours he transferred the task to me but not before he had nearly completed a catalogue of all fragments to be taken from publications up to the summer of 1933 a; this catalogue was seen and so far approved by Hunt himself. Mr. Roberts handed to me at the same time a book of notes, the result of long and ingenious labour on the Tragic and Comic fragments although I started the work again from the beginning, I derived great profit from his researches, and here express my gratitude. The reader will find that the text and translation of each piece are preceded by a short bibliography and an introductory note. I must briefly explain both these and the texts themselves.
