τῆς αὐτῆς ἰδέας καὶ Μελάνθιος ἦν τῆς τραγῳδίας ποιητής· ἔγραψε δὲ καὶ ἐλεγεῖα. κωμῳδοῦσι δʼ αὐτὸν ἐπὶ ὀψοφαγίᾳ Λεύκων ἐν Φράτερσιν, Ἀριστοφάνης ἐν Εἰρήνῃ, Φερεκράτης ἐν Πετάλῃ. ἐν δὲ τοῖς Ἰχθύσιν Ἄρχιππος τῷ δράματι ὡς ὀψοφάγον δήσας παραδίδωσι τοῖς ἰχθύσιν ἀντιβρωθησόμενον. ἀλλὰ μὴν καὶ Ἀρίστιππος Σωκρατικὸς ὀψοφάγος ἦν· ὅστις καὶ ὑπὸ Πλάτωνός ποτε ὀνειδιζόμενος ἐπὶ τῇ ὀψοφαγίᾳ, ὥς φησι Σωτίων καὶ Ἡγήσανδρος, ... γράφει δὲ οὕτως Δελφός· Ἀρίστιππος Πλάτωνος ἐπιτιμήσαντος αὐτῷ διότι πολλοὺς ἰχθῦς ἠγόρασε, δυεῖν ὀβολοῖν ἔφησεν ἐωνῆσθαι. τοῦ δὲ Πλάτωνος εἰπόντος διότι καὶ αὐτὸς ἂν ἠγόρασα τοσούτου, ὁρᾷς οὖν, εἶπεν, Πλάτων, ὅτι οὐκ ἐγὼ ὀψοφάγος, ἀλλὰ σὺ φιλάργυρος. Ἀντιφάνης δʼ ἐν Αὐλητρίδι Διδύμαις Φοινικίδην τινὰ ἐπʼ ὀψοφαγίᾳ κωμῳδῶν φησιν· μὲν Μενέλαος ἐπολέμησʼ ἔτη δέκα τοῖς Τρωσὶ διὰ γυναῖκα τὴν ὄψιν καλήν, Φοινικίδης δὲ Ταυρέᾳ διʼ ἔγχελυν.

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.
