Paragraph
71

μετὰ ταῦτα περιενεχθεισῶν ὀρνίθων τε ὀπτῶν φακῆς τε καὶ πισῶν αὐταῖς χύτραις, ἔτι δὲ τῶν τοιούτων περὶ ὧν Φαινίας Ἐρέσιος ἐν τοῖς περὶ φυτῶν τάδε γράφει· πᾶσα γὰρ χεδροπώδης ἥμερος φύσις ἐνσπέρματος μὲν ἑψήσεως ἕνεκα σπείρεται, οἷον κύαμος, πισός· ἐτνηρὸν γὰρ ἐκ τούτων ἕψημα γίνεται· τὰ δὲ πάλιν αὖθις λεκιθώδη, καθάπερ ἄρακος· τὸ δὲ φακῆς, οἷον ἀφάκη, φακός· τὸ δὲ χόρτου ἕνεκα τῶν τετραπόδων ζῴων, οἷον ὄροβος μὲν ἀροτήρων βοῶν, ἀφάκη δὲ προβάτων. πισοῦ δὲ τοῦ ὀσπρίου μνημονεύει καὶ Εὔπολις ἐν Χρυσῷ γένει. Ἡλιόδωρος δʼ περιηγητὴς ἐν αʹ περὶ ἀκροπόλεως τῆς τῶν πυρῶν, φησίν, ἑψήσεως ἐπινοηθείσης οἱ μὲν παλαιοὶ πύανον, οἱ δὲ νῦν ὁλόπυρον προσαγορεύουσιν. τοιούτων ἔτι πολλῶν λεγομένων Δημόκριτος ἔφη· ἀλλὰ κἂν τῆς φακῆς ἐάσατε ἡμᾶς μεταλαβεῖν αὐτῆς γε τῆς χύτρας, μὴ καὶ λίθοις τις ὑμῶν βεβλήσεται, κατὰ τὸν Θάσιον Ἡγήμονα. καὶ Οὐλπιανὸς ἔφη· τίς δʼ αὕτη λιθίνη βαλλητύς; Ἐλευσῖνι γὰρ τῇ ἐμῇ οἶδά τινα πανήγυριν ἀγομένην καὶ καλουμένην Βαλλητύν· περὶ ἧς οὐκ ἄν τι εἴποιμι μὴ παρʼ ἑκάστου μισθὸν λαβών. ἀλλʼ ἔγωγε, φησὶν Δημόκριτος, οὐκ ὢν λαβάργυρος ὡρολογητὴς κατὰ τὸν Τίμωνος Πρόδικον λέξω τὰ περὶ τοῦ Ἡγήμονος.

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.
