Gottfried Hermann's Opuscula (1827 1877) collects in eight volumes
the shorter writings of this central figure of nineteenth-century
classical philology. Best known for his work on Greek metrics and
his editions of Aeschylus, Euripides and others, Hermann (1772
1848) drew on Kantian phenomenology as well as his own formidable
understanding of ancient grammars to advance a compelling program
of classical scholarship that took language itself as the primary
witness to the distant past. Hermann's grammar-based scholarship
drew criticism, but established him as foundational to modern
philology. As Sihler wrote in 1933, 'He accepted nothing on mere
authority, but investigated the causes and roots of every matter.'
Volume 8 (1877), edited by Theodor Fritzsche, contains works
written between 1839 and Hermann's death, including important
essays on Aeschylus, Pindar and Euripides, reviews, and occasional
verse. This diverse collection provides fuller insight into the
mind of this highly influential scholar.
