The Bibliotheca Teubneriana, established in 1849, has evolved into
the world's most venerable and extensive series of editions of
Greek and Latin literature, ranging from classical to Neo-Latin
texts. Some 4-5 new editions are published every year. A team of
renowned scholars in the field of Classical Philology acts as
advisory board: Gian Biagio Conte (Scuola Normale Superiore di
Pisa) Marcus Deufert (Universitat Leipzig) James Diggle (University
of Cambridge) Donald J. Mastronarde (University of California,
Berkeley) Franco Montanari (Universita di Genova) Heinz-Gunther
Nesselrath (Georg-August-Universitat Goettingen) Dirk Obbink
(University of Oxford) Oliver Primavesi (Ludwig-Maximilians
Universitat Munchen) Michael D. Reeve (University of Cambridge)
Richard J. Tarrant (Harvard University) Formerly out-of-print
editions are offered as print-on-demand reprints. Furthermore, all
new books in the Bibliotheca Teubneriana series are published as
eBooks. The older volumes of the series are being successively
digitized and made available as eBooks. If you are interested in
ordering an out-of-print edition, which hasn't been yet made
available as print-on-demand reprint, please contact us:

the Bibliotheca Teubneriana are collected in the online database
BTL Online.
The five volumes in the Loeb Classical Library edition of "Greek
Lyric" contain the surviving fragments of solo and choral song.
This poetry was not preserved in medieval manuscripts, and few
complete poems remain. Later writers quoted from the poets, but
only so much as suited their needs; these quotations are
supplemented by papyrus texts found in Egypt, most of them badly
damaged. The high quality of what remains makes us realise the
enormity of our loss.
Volume I presents Sappho and Alcaeus. Volume II contains the
work of Anacreon, composer of solo song; the "Anacreontea"; and the
earliest writers of choral poetry, notably the seventh-century
Spartans Alcman and Terpander. Stesichorus, Ibycus, Simonides, and
other sixth-century poets are in Volume III. Bacchylides and other
fifth-century poets are in Volume IV along with Corinna (although
some argue that she belongs to the third century). Volume V
contains the new school of poets active from the mid-fifth to the
mid-fourth century and also collects folk songs, drinking songs,
hymns, and other anonymous pieces.
