Seneca ‘Rhetor’ was last critically edited by H. J. Müller in 1887; the editions of H. Bornecque (1902) and W. A. Edward (Suasoriae only, 1928) lack an apparatus criticus, though the latter's notes give some attention to textual points. Whoever next addresses himself to the task can take heart from Eduard Norden (Röm. Lit., p. 180): ‘der Text ist schwer korrupt, für Konjekturalkritik noch viel zu tun.’ It may be added that he will do a service by jettisoning a large proportion of what Konjekturalkritik has already produced-too much of this nature in Müller's text and apparatus, to say nothing of later contributions, is merely depressing.
1 His second edition of 1932 is not accessible to me, but from the review by Peeters, F. in Revue Beige de Phil. 1933, pp. 1116 ff.Google Scholar, it appears that it differs little from the first.
