• W2093367319 abstract "Although ancient testimonies credit Empedocles with a larger number of works,1 editors and other scholars have been unanimous in dividing the preserved fragments between two, the physical poem and the Katharmoi. Diels' decisions in particular have enjoyed great authority; for while on the sequence of fragments within each of these two works debate was bound to continue, his distribution of the material between the two poems has by and large gone unchallenged. The main exception is B 131-134 which Diels placed in the Katharmoi, even though B 134 is definitely attested for Book III of 7npiL wVws. Actually of the forty-two fragments which Diels assigned to the Katharmoi only one (B 112) is explicitly identified (by Diogenes Laertius, 8.62) as a passage of this work, and it must be admitted that the revolutionary efforts of N. van der Ben2 who proposes to shift more than two-thirds of these fragments to the proem of nrrpi c'aews do not conflict with any item of ancient evidence. The very limited objective which I am pursuing excludes a scrutiny of van der Ben's arguments. I must content myself with expressing my conviction that the great majority of the fragments in question have found their rightful home in the Katharmoi. Yet B131-134, the passages bearing on the true nature of the deity, continue to present a serious problem or, to put it more precisely, two problems. For Tzetzes quotes B134 from the Third Book of nTpi CaEWS,3 which means that if we accept his testimony we must not only transfer B 134 and the three other fragments to the physical poem but must admit for this work the existence of a Third Book in opposition to Diels who was adamant about limiting it to two. The arguments which Diels4 used to discredit Tzetzes' attribution are rather subjective. After the well reasoned protests of Bignone, Kahn and Zuntz5 we may as well admit the existence of a Third Book of wEpl pVtUEWS; but it is essential to realize what this amounts to. For regardless of what view we take of the original publication and later transmission of Empedocles' poems subjects on which we might as well confess our abysmal ignorance6 no author of the fifth century B.C., whether man or god (see B23. 11; 111.4), produced an authoritative or standard edition of his own works and settled once for all their division into Books. Generally speaking, such divisions were fixed by the Alexandrians.7 Whether" @default.
