τῷ δʼ ἡμετέρῳ χορῷ οἶνος φίλος θυρσοφόρος μέτα πρεσβεύων Διόνυσος, φησὶν Ἴων Χῖος ἐν τοῖς ἐλεγείοις· αὕτη γὰρ πρόφασις παντοδαπῶν λογίων· αἵ τε Πανελλήνων ἀγοραὶ θαλίαι τε ἀνάκτων, ἐξ οὗ βοτρυόεσσʼ οἰνὰς ὑποχθόνιον πτόρθον ἀνασχομένη θαλερῷ ἐπτύξατο πήχει αἰθέρος· ὀφθαλμῶν δʼ ἐξέθορον πυκινοὶ παῖδες, φωνήεντες ὅταν πέσῃ ἄλλος ἐπʼ ἄλλῳ, πρὶν δὲ σιωπῶσιν. παυσάμενοι δὲ βοῆς νέκταρ ἀμέλγονται, μόνον ὄλβιον ἀνθρώποισι ξυνόν, τοῦ χαίρειν φάρμακον αὐτοφυές. τοῦ θαλίαι φίλα τέκνα φιλοφροσύναι τε χοροί τε· τῶν ἀγαθῶν βασιλεὺς οἶνος ἔδειξε φύσιν. τοῦ σὺ πάτερ, Διόνυσε, φιλοστεφάνοισιν ἀρέσκων ἀνδράσιν, εὐθύμων συμποσίων πρύτανι, χαῖρε. δίδου δʼ αἰῶνα, καλῶν ἐπιήρανε ἔργων, πίνειν καὶ παίζειν καὶ τὰ δίκαια φρονεῖν. Ἄμφις δʼ ἐν Φιλαδέλφοις ἐπαινῶν τὸν τῶν φιλοποτῶν φησι βίον· κατὰ πόλλʼ ἐπαινῶ μᾶλλον ἡμῶν τὸν βίον τὸν τῶν φιλοποτῶν ἤπερ ὑμῶν τῶν μόνον ἐν τῷ μετώπῳ νοῦν ἔχειν εἰωθότων. μὲν γὰρ ἐπὶ τοῦ συντετάχθαι διὰ τέλους φρόνησις οὖσα διὰ τὸ λεπτῶς καὶ πυκνῶς πάντʼ ἐξετάζειν δέδιεν ἐπὶ τὰ πράγματα ὁρμᾶν προχείρως, δὲ διὰ τὸ μὴ σαφῶς τί ποτʼ ἀφʼ ἑκάστου πράγματος συμβήσεται διαλελογίσθαι δρᾷ τι καὶ νεανικὸν καὶ θερμόν.

CTS URN Retriever

The CTS URN retriever is a tool for retrieving and citing paragraphs, passages, and words in the text of the Deipnosophists by typing the corresponding CTS URN. The Digital Athenaeus is providing the text of the Teubner edition of the Deipnosophists by Georg Kaibel (1887-1890), which is cataloged as perseus-grc2 in the Perseus Catalog.

The syntax of the URNs follows the specification of the CITE Architecture.

For example:

The tool allows also users to type only book and paragraph of the Deipnosophists and get the corresponding CTS URN.

For example:

Correspondences between Casaubon and Kaibel references are available through the Casaubon-Kaibel Reference Converter.

The icons on the left of each paragraph are links to external resources:

Using CTS URNs, it is possible to export citations of the Deipnosophists down to the word level. By selecting a portion of text holding down the ALT-key, users get a pop-up window with the CTS URN that identifies the selected chunk of text.
