The surviving text of the fragmentary Phaethon of Euripides depends
chiefly on two sources: two pages from a Euripidean manuscript,
written about A.D. 500, and a papyrus of the third century B.C.,
which contains a substantial part of the parodos. These sources are
supplemented by a number of citations in classical authors and by a
recently published fragmentary hypothesis. Professor Diggle has
examined all the manuscript evidence and offers many decipherments.
He gives a text of the play and of the hypothesis, an exegetical
commentary, prolegomena and appendices, in which he discusses the
treatment of the Phaethon myth in classical literature and attempts
a reconstruction of the plot of the play.
