Résumé : | P. Palau Rib. inv. 155 + P. Mich. inv. 6 offers an extract from a progymnasmata manual about the fable (μῦθος). In this paper, I compare the considerations on this rhetorical exercise preserved in this papyrus codex with treatments of the same topic in manuals which have come down to us via the manuscript tradition, paying particular attention to Aelius Theon’s manual. The aim of this comparison is to highlight not only the points of convergence but also the features that distinguish this papyrus from the tradition. |
