I cite manuscripts from my own collations. Information about most of these manuscripts, and explanation of the symbols by which I designate them, may be found in A. Turyn,The Byzantine Manuscript Tradition of the Tragedies of Euripides(Urbana, 1953), K. Matthiessen,Studien zur Textüberlieferung der Euripideischen Hekabe(Heidelberg, 1974), and D. J. Mastronarde and J. M. Bremer,The Textual Tradition of Euripides' Phoinissai(Berkeley, 1982). I shall discuss the affiliations and the relative value of these manuscripts on a later occasion. For the present no knowledge (...) of these matters is needed. I refer to modern editions by the names of their editors: Wecklein = N. Wecklein (Leipzig, 1890), Wecklein (1906) = N. Wecklein (Leipzig and Berlin, 1906), Di Benedetto = V. Di Benedetto (Florence, 1965), Biehl = W. Biehl (Leipzig, Teubner, 1975), Willink = C. W. Willink (Oxford, 1986, 1989 [with Addendis Addenda]), West = M. L. West (Warminster, Aris and Phillips, 1987).Studiesrefers to myStudies on the Text of Euripides(Oxford, 1981). (shrink)
