Abstract

This is the third of five sets of text-critical, exegetical and sometimes metrical remarks on Antigone. These *Sophocleuncula are not only minute philological notes but they involve broader issues having a bearing on the interpretation and meaning of the drama as a whole. These remarks were composed with a view to drawing attention to a number of forgotten or unseen difficulties and to trying to address a number of seen but unsolved problems more efficaciously. The text and meaning of not a few other passages from works of Sophocles or of other writers are also dealt with.
