Preface
This work is intended as a contribution to the reconstruction of the
doctrines of Aelius Herod ian, the understanding of the scholia on the
Iliad and their transmission, and the clarification of the sources of the
Byzantine etymologica.
Though Karl Lehrs already saw the need for a new edition of the
Epimerismi Homerici and planned to supply it, he, regrettably, did
not live to complete the task.1 More recently, H. Erbse perceived and
emphatically called attention to this desideratum.2 The present work
is the revised and much expanded version of a dissertation inspired
and directed by Prof. Erbse and submitted in August, 1975, to the
faculty of the Division of the Humanities of the University of Chicago
in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of
Philosophy.
This work is indebted to many benefactors. Above all, Prof. Erbse
followed every stage of its progress with unfailing interest, en-
couragement and wise advice. The apparatus criticus gives only a
partial and imperfect notion of how much the work benefited from
the criticisms of the late Professor Benedict Einarson, under whose
auspices it was submitted as a University of Chicago dissertation.
The material basis for the work was created by the German Academic
Exchange Service, which generously supported my research in the
years 1972-74 and enabled me to travel to Paris to check my col-
lation of P. Publication was made possible by a generous grant from
the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Prof. Dr. H. Hunger of Vienna
gave me the benefit of his expert advice on the date of the MS G
(below, pp. 21 f.); Mr. Nigel Wilson of Lincoln College, Oxford, provided
valuable information on the quire signatures of Ο (below, p. 19);
Dr. Christos Theodoridis of Thessaloniki helped with the identification
of citations. The work has been improved by the expert scrutiny of
the editors of the "Sammlung griechischer und lateinischer Gram-
matiker" : besides Professor Erbse, Professors K. Alpers of Ham-
burg and A. Kleinlogel of Bochum. The compositors and staff of
the de Gruyter Verlag have performed their role with the greatest
precision and care. Dr. David Blank has kindly helped share the
burden of proof-reading. Dom Marco Petta, librarian of the Badia

Greca di Grottaferrata, Prof. Dr. Rudolf Schieffer of Bonn, Dr.
Terence O'Connell and Mr. John Rogers have all helped in various
ways to make my work easier. My parents, my sister Laura and my
wife Janis have all provided understanding, support and material
help when needed. To all these benefactors I render my heart-felt
thanks. For the remaining imperfections of the work I bear sole
responsibility.
