abstract

Notes on Velleius Book I (2, 1; 6, 1–2; 12, 7; 14, 2; 16, 5; 17, 2) The article deals with six passages in the first book of Velleius Paterculus. In I, 2, 1, Scaliger’s emendation of atavus to abavus is defended; in I, 6, 1–2, it is suggested to read omnino DXX instead of the received †ooLXX†; in I, 12, 7, a conjecture neque ‹quicquam› is suggested; precision of some Velleius’ statements in I, 14, 2 is defended; a new interpretation of the mention of Isocrates in I, 16, 5 is offered; and a correction historicos {et} in I, 17, 2 is suggested. Poznámky k první knize Velleia Patercula Článek se věnuje šesti místům první knihy díla Velleia Patercula. V I, 2, 1 obhajuje Scaligerovu emendaci atavus na abavus, v I, 6, 1–2 doporučuje číst dochované †ooLXX† jako omnino DXX, v I, 12, 7 navrhuje konjekturu neque ‹quicquam›, dále obhajuje přesnost některých Velleiových údajů v I, 14, 2, přináší novou interpretaci zmínky o Ísokratovi v I, 16, 5 a konečně navrhuje opravu historicos {et} v I, 17, 2.
