Alcestis Barcinonensis
The so-called ''Alcestis Barcinonensis'' is a mythological poem of at least 124 Latin hexameters on the story of Alcestis dying for the sake of her husband Admetus, following by and large the play by Euripides. The poem has been written on four papyrus leaves (papyri Barcinonenses inv. no. 158ab, 159ab, 160ab and 161a) dated to the second half of the fourth century on account of the handwriting, an early half-uncial with cursive elements, and inserted into a codex mixtus at some later point in time. The editio princeps has been published by the Catalan priest and papyrologist Ramon Roca-Puig on 18 October 1982. The papyrus leaves are now in the possession of the foundation ''Sant Lluc Evangelista'' founded by Roca-Puig and located in Barcelona (in Latin: ''Barcino'', hence the specifying adjective).
== Discovery and publication ==
The ''Alcestis'' occupies ''folia'' 33–36 of the ''codex mixtus''. It is preceded by Cicero’s ''Catilinarians'' 1 and 2 (''folia'' 1–24a), a Latin psalmus responsorius (''folia'' 24b–28a) and a Greek liturgical text (''folia'' 29b–32).〔The psalm and the ''Catilinarians'' have been published earlier by Ramón Roca-Puig: ''Barcelona Psalm'' (Barcelona 1965); ''Catilinarians 1 and 2'' (Barcelona 1977).〕 The dating goes back to E. A. Lowe,〔E. A. Lowe: ''No. 1782 of the Supplement to his Codices Latini Antiquiores.'' Oxford 1971, 32.〕 who dates the ''psalmus responsorius'' to the second half of the fourth century and, copied by the same hand, the ''Alcestis'' as well.
The decipherment and interpretation of the papyrus has been pushed ahead at four places simultaneously: by Wolfgang Dieter Lebek at the University of Cologne, by Peter J. Parsons, Robin G. M. Nisbet, and G. O. Hutchinson at the University of Oxford, by Miroslav Marcovich at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and by Vincenzo Tandoi at the University of Foggia.
