Author Description

Excerpt from Dissertationes Philologicae Halenses, Vol. 11 Inter verba Homerica et intransitive et transitive usurpata maxime ea verba, quae significatione et intransitiva et causativa utuntur, cum ob copiam apud Homerum obviam tum ob diffi cultates in explicandis eorum duplicia usus causis positas digna sunt, quae accuratìus perscrutemur. Quorum ex tractatione baud scio an etiam ad illustrandam quaestionem Homericam quam vocant, si non multum, at certe aliquantulum conferatur. Etsi enim quaestio Homerica adhuc nondum est persoluta neque umquam fortasse ita finìetur, ut omnium dubitationes removeantur, tamen id, opinar, inter plerosque virorum doctorum convenit carmina Homerica cum multis aliis ex causis, tum ex causis in loquendi consuetudine positis, attribuenda esse compluribus, non uni Romero. Ut Friedlaenderus 1) vocabulorum Homericorum supellectilem in utroque poémate disparem esse docuit, ita modo in Iliade tantum, modo in Odyssea, quin etiam in carmi nibas singulia, quae ex criticorum suspicione sorioria sunt aetatis, nonnullorum verborum unam alteramve notionem reperiti ex disputatione nostra patchit.
