Abstract

The article presents some unpublished studies on Philodemus’ On Gods, Book 1 (PHerc. 26) which I discovered while preparing a new edition of the Hercu­laneum papyrus, last edited by Hermann Diels in 1916. These materials include two copies of Diels’ edition annotated by Peter von der Mühll and Samson Eitrem; the drafts of a new edition of the papyrus by Knut Kleve and Pål Tidemandsen; a draft of a monograph on Epicurean theology, titled Physis Theon, by Knut Kleve; and an English translation by David Armstrong.
