Venetus A is the more common name for the tenth century AD manuscript catalogued in the Biblioteca Marciana in Venice as ''Codex Marcianus Graecus'' 454, now 822. Venetus A is the most famous manuscript of the Homeric ''Iliad''; it is regarded by some as the best text of the epic. As well as the text of the ''Iliad'', Venetus A preserves several layers of annotations, glosses, and commentaries known as the "A scholia", and a summary of the early Greek Epic Cycle which is by far the most important source of information on those lost poems. ==Contents== Venetus A contains the following in one volume: *a full text of the ''Iliad'' in ancient Greek *marginal critical marks, shown by finds of ancient papyri to reflect fairly accurately those that would have been in Aristarchus' edition of the ''Iliad'' *damaged excerpts from Proclus' ''Chrestomathy'', namely the ''Life of Homer'', and summaries of all of the Epic Cycle except the ''Cypria'' *two sets of marginal scholia on the ''Iliad'': * *the "A scholia", derived largely from the work of Aristarchus * *some "D scholia", discussing difficulties in the meanings of words * *among the above, a very few exegetical scholia (exegetical scholia are far more characteristic of the "B" and "T" scholia) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Venetus A」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
