Paragraph
15

Ἀπολλόδωρος Ἀθηναῖος ἐν τῷ τρίτῳ περὶ Σώφρονος τῷ εἰς τοὺς ἀνδρείους μίμους προθεὶς τὸ καταπυγοτέραν τʼ ἀλφηστᾶν φησίν· ἰχθῦς τινες οἱ ΑΛΦΗΣΤΑΙ τὸ μὲν ὅλον κιρροειδεῖς, πορφυρίζοντες δὲ κατά τινα μέρη. φασὶ δʼ αὐτοὺς ἁλίσκεσθαι σύνδυο καὶ φαίνεσθαι τὸν ἕτερον ἐπὶ τοῦ ἑτέρου κατʼ οὐρὰν ἑπόμενον. ἀπὸ τοῦ οὖν κατὰ τὴν πυγὴν θατέρῳ τὸν ἕτερον ἀκολουθεῖν τῶν ἀρχαίων τινὲς τοὺς ἀκρατεῖς καὶ καταφερεῖς οὕτω καλοῦσιν. Ἀριστοτέλης ἐν τῷ περὶ ζῴων μονάκανθον εἶναι καὶ κιρρὸν τὸν ἀλφηστικόν. μνημονεύει δʼ αὐτοῦ καὶ Νουμήνιος Ἡρακλεώτης ἐν Ἁλιευτικῷ οὕτως· φυκίδας ἀλφηστήν τε καὶ ἐν χροιῇσιν ἐρυθρὸν σκορπίον. καὶ Ἐπίχαρμος ἐν Ἥβας γάμῳ· μύες ἀλφησταί τε κορακῖνοί τε κοριοειδέες. μνημονεύει δʼ αὐτοῦ καὶ Μίθαικος ἐν Ὀψαρτυτικῷ.

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.
