The same remark applies to other passages where the scholiast and some modern critics have seen satirical allusions to Nero (e.
He denounced the dead Domitian in a brilliant epigram which may have formed part of that selection, but which has only been preserved to us by the scholiast on Juvenal (iv.
On this last passage the scholiast says, 'Attius Labeo poeta indoctus fuit illorum temporum, qui Iliadem Homeri foedissime composuit.
According to the scholiast the opening line is taken from the first satire of Lucilius.
At one time Persius, if the scholiastmay be believed,[224] contemplated a military career.
Further, the third satire is said by the scholiast to have been modelled on the fourth book of Lucilius, and there is a certain amount of evidence for supposing the choliambi of the epilogue to be an imitation of a Lucilian model.
According to the scholiast the last four lines-- torva Mimalloneis implerunt cornua bombis, et raptum vitulo caput ablatura superbo Bassaris et lyncem Maenas flexura corymbis euhion ingeminat, reparabilis adsonat echo (i.
Yet a Scholiaston a former passage took it in the sense of God-opposing.
On this a scholiast says that the name "Homeridae" denoted originally descendants of Homer, who sang his poems in succession, but afterwards was applied to rhapsodists who did not claim descent from him.
The statement of the scholiast is evidently a mere inference from the patronymic form of the word.
See the old Greek scholiast on Clement of Alexandria, quoted by Chr.
At least that is expressly affirmed by the old scholiast on Pindar and it is borne out by the practice of rewarding the victors with measures of barley.
This theory is in harmony with the evidence of the scholiast on Pindar, who tells us that the Eleusinian games were celebrated after the corn-harvest.
The prize of barley is mentioned by the Scholiast on Pindar, Olymp.
Callimachus, referred to by the Old Scholiast on Ovid, Ibis.
The date of the sacrifice (14th Skirophorion) is given by the Scholiast on Aristophanes and the Etymologicum Magnum; and this date corresponds, according to W.
Eustathius, the scholiast of Aristophanes, and Hesychius, have also explained these expressions as alluding to the hardness and solidity of the hoofs.
It differs from those of Clarke, Eustathius, and another Scholiast quoted by Clarke, but seems to suit the context much better than either.
For a right understanding of this very intricate and difficult passage, I am altogether indebted to the Scholiast as quoted by Villoisson.
Which is explained by the Scholiast in Villoisson to signify--advancing with quick, short steps, and at the same time covering the feet with a shield.
It is a circumstance on which the Scholiast observes that it denotes in a wrestler the greatest possible bodily strength and firmness of position.
See the Scholiast in Villoisson, who argues at large in favor of this opinion.
The repetition follows the original, and the Scholiast is of opinion that Homer uses it here that he may express more emphatically the length to which such conferences are apt to proceed.
The Scholiast in Villoisson calls it {physikon tina kai metrion gelôta} a natural and moderate laughter.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "scholiast" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
