On this basis, a new \u003cem\u003estemma codicum\u003c\/em\u003e and a new Greek critical text with parallel English translation are offered. The extensive introduction reconstructs the manuscript and printed transmission of the text and sheds new light on its nature and its reception in antiquity. \u003cem\u003eDissoi Logoi\u003c\/em\u003e appears to have been written between 355 and 338 BCE, in an Eastern form of Doric κοινή, by a sophist who aimed to promote his course. It likely worked as a source for Sextus Empiricus, which contributes to explaining the work’s collocation at the end of Sextus' codices. The third and final part of the book consists in a two-level commentary. First, the \u003cem\u003eStructural Commentary\u003c\/em\u003e looks into blocks of chapters from a rhetorical and philosophical perspective. Then, the \u003cem\u003eLemmatic Commentary \u003c\/em\u003edelves into the most salient lemmas of the text, covering textual, linguistic, literary, and historical issues as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2024-10-17\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031695339\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-69534-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 186.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45443188588684,"sku":"9783031695339","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031695339.jpg?v=1766064064","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783031695339","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
