Abstract

This paper is devoted to W.G. Arnott’s handwritten annotations on the edition with commentary of Euripides’ Bacchae edited by E.R. Dodds. A reprint of Dodd’s edition (1953) was bought by Arnott in 1953; after his death (2010) this and other books belonging to Arnott’s collection were acquired by Scrinium Classical Antiquity, a Dutch antiquarian bookstore, and the author of this paper came into possession of this book in July 2013. The Greek text of Dodd’s edition presents Arnott’s marginalia, mostly in pencil, on both the right- and the left-handed margins, and there are even some slips of paper with copious glosses on longer passages. Further annotations in the book’s introduction might give some clues to propose a dating. This paper will offer a transcript and discussion of Arnott’s major annotations on Dodd’s introduction and Greek text, including his remarks in the slips of paper. This will make it possible to shed light on Arnott’s reflections on Euripides’ Bacchae over the years and his critical approach to the Greek text and to Dodd’s edition itself.
