Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Eclogues of Calpurnius Siculus and M. Aurelius Olympius Nemesianus: With Introduction, Commentary, and Appendix Almost all authorities give Calpurnius the praenomen Titus. The praenomen Caius, however, is found in VR1.ra and in one Florentine MS., while several MSS. give no praenomen. Glaeser says that a Vienna MS. (n. 286) has at the beginning Incipiunt buccolica Theocriti Calphurnii siculi P. cl., and at the end Expliciunt buccolicon Theocriti Calfurnii poetae siculi, whence he conjectures that the praenomen Titus originated from the name Theocritus, applied to Calpurnius on account of the style of his poetry. He also thinks that the praenomen Caius originated from an erroneous repetition of the beginning of the name Calpurnius, and concludes that we should follow those MSS. which give no praenomen. Wernsdorf says that Gyraldus, Fabricius, and Burmann give our poet the praenomen Junius, or Julius, doubtless identifying him with the Junius, or Julius Calpurnius, qui ad memoriam dictabat, mentioned by Vopiscus, in his life of Carus, chapter 8. On this subject, and also on the meaning of Siculus, as applied to Calpurnius, see page 9. Sarpius, with little probability, as Haupt shows, attributes the poems to one Calpurnius Serranus, in the time of Claudius.
