Towards a new critical edition of the scholia to the Iliad: a specimen

An on-going new critical edition is presented, designed to gather together for the first time all the scholia vetera to the Iliad transmitted by the manuscript tradition. A short introduction is followed by a sample of the new critical text (i.e. sch. in Iliadem A 6–11), compared to the corresponding part in Hartmut Erbse’s edition.
