Paragraph

δὲ τοὺς εἰς Χιωνίδην ἀναφερομένους ποιήσας Πτωχοὺς Γνησίππου τινὸς μνημονεύει παιγνιαγράφου τῆς ἱλαρᾶς μούσης, λέγων οὕτως· ταῦτʼ οὐ μὰ Δία Γνήσιππος οὐδὲ Κλεομένης ἐν ἐννέʼ ἂν χορδαῖς κατεγλυκάνατο. καὶ τοὺς Εἵλωτας δὲ πεποιηκώς φησιν· τὰ Στησιχόρου τε καὶ Ἀλκμᾶνος Σιμωνίδου τε ἀρχαῖον ἀείδειν. δὲ Γνήσιππος ἔστʼ ἀκούειν, ὃς νυκτερίνʼ εὗρε μοιχοῖς ἀείσματʼ ἐκκαλεῖσθαι γυναῖκας ἔχοντας ἰαμβύκην τε καὶ τρίγωνον. Κρατῖνος ἐν Μαλθακοῖς· τίς ἄρʼ ἐρῶντά μʼ οἶδεν, Γνήσιππε, ἐγὼ πολλῇ χολη. οἴομαι ... μηδὲν οὕτως μωρὸν εἶναι καὶ κενόν. σκώπτει δʼ αὐτὸν εἰς τὰ ποιήματα καὶ ἐν Βουκόλοις· ὃς οὐκ ἔδωκʼ αἰτοῦντι Σοφοκλέει χορόν, τῷ Κλεομάχου δʼ, ὃν οὐκ ἂν ἠξίουν ἐγὼ ἐμοὶ διδάσκειν οὐδʼ ἂν εἰς Ἀδώνια. ἐν δὲ ταῖς Ὥραις· ἴτω δὲ καὶ τραγῳδίας Κλεομάχου διδάσκαλος μετʼ αὐτόν, παρατιλτριῶν ἔχων χορὸν λυδιστὶ τιλλουσῶν μέλη πονηρά. Τηλεκλείδης δὲ ἐν τοῖς Στερροῖς καὶ περὶ μοιχείας ἀναστρέφεσθαί φησιν αὐτόν. Κλέαρχος δὲ ἐν δευτέρῳ Ἐρωτικῶν τὰ ἐρωτικά φησιν ᾄσματα καὶ τὰ Λοκρικὰ καλούμενα οὐδὲν τῶν Σαπφοῦς καὶ Ἀνακρέοντος διαφέρειν. ἔτι δὲ τὰ Ἀρχιλόχου καὶ τῶν Ὁμήρου Ἐπικιχλίδων τὰ πολλὰ διὰ τῆς ἐμμέτρου ποιήσεως τούτων ἔχεταί τινος τῶν παθῶν, ἀλλὰ καὶ τὰ Ἀσωποδώρου περὶ τὸν Ἔρωτα καὶ πᾶν τὸ τῶν ἐρωτικῶν ἐπιστολῶν γένος ἐρωτικῆς τινος διὰ λόγου ποιήσεώς ἐστιν.

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.
