This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1901 edition. Excerpt: ...193); animum adducere (Hec. 836). 57. alere: used in apposition with studium. ad philosophos: with animum adiungant. The change of construction is due to conversational freedom. So, too, horum (58) notwithstanding the singular quod. The leisure time of young men of means is here described as devoted either to horsemanship and the chase or to study in the schools of philosophy. They would thus, according to their tastes, continue to follow one or the other of the two main lines of Athenian education, yviima-riK and Juowiki, the latter being a much wider term than our 'music'; cf. Plato, Sep. 3, especially 412. a and 6. The passage here is very like one in Isocrates, Areopagiticus, 45, "The Areopagites compelled citizens of ample means to engage in horsemanship, gymnastics, hunting, and philosophy." Evidently, then, no joke is intended in the juxtaposition of hunting dogs and philosophers. 58. horum = harum rerum; A. & G. 188. b; B. 236. 2; G. 204. 4. nihil: the accusative with studere occurs with neuter pronouns and adjectives. Otherwise the dative is usual. Cf. illud ipsum quod studet (Cic. Fin. 5. 2. 6). For the thought, cf. Steele, The Conscious Lovers, Act I. 2, "You have not been particular... you have done nothing but lived in the general." 60. gaudebam: cf. 89. An expressive close. It is characteristically Greek that Simo should be glad that his son followed no pursuit, however innocent, to excess; ii-qSiv &yav applies to philosophy as well as to sport. non iniuria: not without reason. Iniuria is the opposite of hire. 61. adprime: gives a superlative sense to the adjective; it is used only in ante-and post-classical Latin. ut: sc. agas (Don.). See note on 56. The omission of a subjunctive mood is...
