Notes on P.Oxy. XXXII 2636 (Commentary to Pindar?)

Abstract

This paper re-examines an anonymous commentary to two anonymous lyric texts (possibly by Pindar) preserved by P.Oxy. XXXII 2636. It offers a fresh critical text and apparatus, followed by exegetical notes on several passages. Parallels from Pindaric praise poetry allow a richer reconstruction of the original contents.
