Sommario/riassunto |
|
Ciceros Schrift De inventione, die in der Antike unter dem Titel Rhetorica verbreitet war, ist in Antike und Mittelalter das meist benutzte Lehrbuch zur Rhetorik gewesen (über 1500 Hss. sind noch erhalten). Gelesen wurde die Schrift stets mit 2 Kommentaren des 4. nachchristlichen Jhdt.s, der Exegese des Victorinus und der des Grillius. Die Erstedition des nur teilweise erhaltenen Grillius erfolgte 1927 durch J. Martin. Diese Edition basierte auf unzureichender Kenntnis und fehlerhafter Auswertung der handschriftlichen Überlieferung. Die neue Ausgabe, die auf einer erstmaligen Recensio der direkten wie indirekten Überlieferung beruht, unterscheidet sich wie kaum eine andere Teubneriana von einer Vorgängeredition: Die Neuordnung der Überlieferung fördert auf jeder Seite zahlreiche bisher unbekannte oder mißachtete Lesarten zu Tage, so daß de facto ein völlig neuer Text geboten wird, der, befreit von mittelalterlichen Zusätzen und Konjekturen, das Orignal wiedergewinnt. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Exciting reading for anyone with a curious mind!'Walking one day by a golf course in Wisconsin, I was startled to hear a sharp bang as a golf ball narrowly missed my head and hit a tree. My companion cheerfully remarked, 'That could have killed you, you know.' I picked up the innocent looking little white ball and looked at it with new respect.'Prompted by this perilous experience, Brian Kaye has written a delightful and informative book on the design and behavior of different kinds of missiles from golf balls, arrows, and slingshots to comets and rockets to outer space.
