Empedocles' "Mountain Path'' (fr. 24)

Elenchos 33 (2):301-334 (2012)

Abstract

Empedocles' fr. 24 is known only from its quotation by Plutarch. The words as quoted leave themselves open to divergent interpretations. The context in Plutarch nonetheless holds out some hope of being able to decide which of the divergent interpretations would have matched the use that Empedocles himself made of the two verses in his poem.
