Abstract

It is generally admitted that Bekker's Kb—Laur. 81, 11—is the best, as it is the oldest, authority for the text both of the Nicomachean Ethics and of the Great Morals. It is desirable therefore that the testimony of that manuscript should be presented to the learned public as accurately as possible. So far as concerns the Nicomachean Ethics, the reports of that testimony which are now available are chiefly the following: (a) Bekker's, as given in his academical edition of 1831, (b) Schöll's, as given first in Rassow's Forschungen über die Nikomachische Ethik, Weimar, 1874, at p. 10, sqq., and subsequently in Susemihl's editions, of which the third and last was edited by Otto Apelt and published in the Teubner series in 1912, and (c) Bywater's, as given in his Oxford text. Bywater's apparatus criticus is unfortunately what is called a select apparatus criticus.
