“When faced with a scholarly record on this order of complexity, there is much to be said for the thoroughness we sometimes call pedantry[This volume] will continuously and rightfully earn our respect and our thanks.” — Sander M. Goldberg, UCLA, Bryn Mawr Classical Review (2013.02.12) English summary: This is a new edition of all extant texts and fragments of Livius Andronicus, of Naevius, the Tragici Minores and the Fragmenta Adespota with comprehensive apparatus and appendices. It offers all fragments in their respective context, with comments ordered according to the different lemmata. The apparatus concern especially the transmission of the text as well as the literary history of the fragments in modern times, including the text revisions adopted from earlier editions. The volume is complemented by a list of scribal abbreviations and references, indices of the sources and all words that appear in the texts, an overview of the meters employed as well as concordances with other relevant editions of the tragic poets. German description: Der erste Band der neuen Ausgabe der Tragicorum Romanorum Fragmenta prasentiert alle bekannten Testimonien und Fragmente des Livius Andronicus, des Naevius, der Tragici Minores und die Fragmenta Adespota (in der als wahrscheinlich zu konstituierenden Textfassung) mit einem ausfuhrlichen Apparat. Die neue Ausgabe bietet alle Fragmente in dem jeweiligen Kontext sowie einen umfangreichen, in unterschiedliche Lemmata gegliederten Apparat, der uber die Uberlieferungslage sowie die textkritische und literarhistorische Forschungsgeschichte der Fragmente in der Neuzeit informiert, d.h. uber die in fruheren Ausgaben aufgenommenen Textversionen und die in der Sekundarliteratur vorgeschlagenen Emendationen und Interpretationen.
