Eine Auswahl herkulanischer kleiner Schriften (1864-1909): Herausgegeben von T. Dorandi

This volume deals with the important Herculanean and philosophical studies of the great Viennese Hellenist Theodor Gomperz. The introduction presents both a concise biography of Gomperz and a careful discussion of his work on the Herculanean Papyri of Epicurus and Philodemus. Gomperz’s essays, reprinted for the first time, are collected here in a photomechanical reprint and furnished with new pagination. To respect the historical character of the collection, no updating of the articles has been attempted. An index of the Herculanean Papyri and a concordance complete the book.
