Paragraph
1

Εἴ μοι τὸ Νεστόρειον εὔγλωσσον μέλος Ἀντήνορός τε τοῦ Φρυγὸς δοίη θεός, κατὰ τὸν πάνσοφον Εὐριπίδην, ἑταῖρε Τιμόκρατες, οὐκ ἂν δυναίμην ἀπομνημονεύειν ἔτι σοι τῶν πολλάκις λεχθέντων ἐν τοῖς περισπουδάστοις τούτοις συμποσίοις διά τε τὴν ποικιλίαν καὶ τὴν ὁμοιότητα τῶν ἀεὶ καινῶς προσευρισκομένων. καὶ γὰρ καὶ περὶ τάξεως τῶν περιφορῶν πολλάκις ἐλέχθη καὶ περὶ τῶν μετὰ τὸ δεῖπνον ἐπιτελουμένων, ἅπερ καὶ μόλις ἀναπεμπάζομαι, εἰπόντος τινὸς τῶν ἑταίρων τὰ ἐκ τῶν Λακώνων Πλάτωνος ἰαμβεῖα· ἅνδρες δεδειπνήκασιν ἤδη; Β. σχεδὸν ἅπαντες. Α. εὖ γε· τί οὐ τρέχων σὺ τὰς τραπέζας ἐκφέρεις; ἐγὼ δὲ λίτρον παραχέων ἔρχομαι. Β. κἀγὼ δὲ παρακορήσων. σπονδὰς δʼ ἔπειτα παραχέας τὸν κότταβον παροίσω· τῇ παιδὶ τοὺς αὐλοὺς ἐχρῆν ἤδη πρὸ χειρὸς εἶναι καὶ προαναφυσᾶν. τὸ μύρον ἤδη παράχεον βαδίζων Αἰγύπτιον κᾆτʼ ἴρινον· στέφανον δʼ ἔπειθʼ ἑκάστῳ δώσω φέρων τῶν ξυμποτῶν. νεοκρᾶτά τις ποιείτω. Α. καὶ δὴ κέκραται. Β. τὸν λιβανωτὸν ἐπιτιθεὶς εἶπε ... σπονδὴ μὲν ἤδη γέγονε καὶ πίνοντές εἰσι πόρρω· καὶ σκόλιον ᾖσται, κότταβος δʼ ἐξοίχεται θύραζε. αὐλοὺς δʼ ἔχουσά τις κορίσκη Καρικὸν μέλος τι μελίζεται τοῖς συμπόταις· κἄλλην τρίγωνον εἶδον ἔχουσαν, εἶτʼ ᾖδεν πρὸς αὐτὸ μέλος Ἰωνικόν τι.

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.
