The so-Called Peisistratean Edition of Hesiod

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  11 February 2009

Abstract

Inthe Classical Quarterly for July-October, 1924, the late Mr. H. G. Evelyn White sought (1) to establish that the vulgate of Hesiod is a conflation of two or more versions; (2) to point out the inference to be drawn, and to suggest a date for the formation of the received text. To establish his first point in respect of the Works and Days he gives a list of eighteen passages where he suspects the hand of a conflator.
