CHARITON OF APHRODISIAS CALLIRHOE KARTONIERT (TB)

Chariton of Aphrodisias' 'Callirhoe' is the first Greek novel transmitted to us in its entirety
thanks to a manuscript  codex Florentinus Laurentianus Conv. Soppr. 627 (F)  dated to the end
of the 13th century. Three papyri (ca. 200 AD) and the so-called Codex Thebanus (7th century) 
which is now not extant  are witnesses to brief passages of the text. A comparison of the text
transmitted by F and the papyri with the text of the Thebanus shows significant divergences 
which cannot always be explained away as ordinary copyist mistakes. These divergences are
collected in the critical apparatus of this new edition  together with the numerous conjectures
made by scholars. A succinct and full introduction offers the keys to Chariton's language and
text. In sum  this critical edition takes account of the more recent developments in the
research on Chariton's text and serves as reference text for the accompanying commentary on
this novel by M. Baumbach and M. Sanz Morales.
