Book Information
Book Description
Scholia are the annotations found in medieval manuscripts of Greek authors. They are found in the margins and between the lines of a primary text, or occasionally gathered in a separate codex or section of a codex. The annotations represent an amalgamation of commentary and glosses made over a long period of time, from the 2nd century BCE to the Renaissance, and designed for a wide spectrum of users, from professional scholars and advanced teachers to learners using the primary text as a means of learning classical Greek vocabulary, grammar, and style.
This edition is part of a long-term, open-ended project to provide a more extensive accounting of the annotations on the tragedies of Euripides than ever before. This book provides a completion of annotations on Orestes (Part 1 covered lines 1–500 and Part 2 covered 501–1100). This edition contains updated front matter, including addenda and corrigenda to the earlier parts, and the annotations on Orestes 1101–1693.
The three eBooks together represent the version of the online edition of scholia at EuripidesScholia.org as of Release 3.1 (2026). This version is intended for digital preservation purposes. Updates and greater functionality are available at the online site.
