Popis: | The paper aims at examining some new testimonies on Aeschines of Sphettus that were not included in Gabriele Giannantoni’s Socratis et Socraticorum Reliquiae , and that refer to different aspects of the Socratic’s life and works. Some texts concern Aeschines’ biografy; namely, his relationship with Socrates (Suid. s.v . Σωκράτης), his patronymic and his poverty (Aristoph. Vesp . 1243–1247, 323–326, 459; Suid. s.v . σeσέλλισαι; Hesych. Miles. S.V. σeσέλλισαι). Other testimonies directly refer to Aeschines’ logoi Sokratikoi , with regard both to the style (Mich. Psellos Ἔπαινος τοῦ Ἰταλοῦ 19, 83; Hermog. De ideis I 409, 5) and to the content of specific dialogues, such as the Aspasia (Philod. Vit. X = PHerc. 1008, coll. XXI – XXII ; Harpocrat. s.v . Ἀσπασία), the Miltiades (Stob. II 34, 10) and the Alcibiades (Priscian. De constructione VII 187. 7–8).Leaving aside Aristophanes, all the new fragments derive from late sources, and they can be ascribed to the Socratic with different degrees of certainty. Evidence for their attribution, indeed, is not always compelling. I will thus argue for the inclusion of some of these textes in a new collection of Aeschines’ fragments, by trying at the same time to define their place and their relevance within the complex of the sources on the Socratic. |
