Summary:

SGG 2 offers a commented critical edition of the preserved textual fragments from the Homeric studies of the Greek scholar-poet Antimachus of Colophon (floruit ca. 400 bce). If as an epic and elegiac poet Antimachus was a forerunner of the Alexandrian docta poesis, he was also an editor and scholar of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, producing an 'ekdosis' of both poems (the first among the so-called 'kat'andra' 'editions') and a syngramma, i.e. monograph, in which he dealt with biographical, exegetical and glossographical issues.
