Headword: *(hgh/sippos
Adler number: eta,57
Translated headword: Hegesippos, Hegesippus
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
This man is the one nicknamed Topknot[1], whom some believe to be the author of the Seventh Philippic [of] Demosthenes.[2]
Amongst his plays is Philetairoi, according to Athenaeus.[3]
Greek Original:
*(hgh/sippos: ou(=to/s e)stin o( *)arw/bulos e)pikalou/menos, ou(= dokei= tis ei)=nai o( z# *fi/lippos *dhmosqe/nhs e)pigrafo/menos. tw=n drama/twn au)tou= e)sti *file/tairoi, w(s *)aqh/naios.
Notes:
From Harpokration s.v., garbled throughout, and with a particularly infelicitous extra paragraph: see n.3 below.
[1] "Krobylos", Harpokration and elsewhere; "Arobylos" (meaningless), Suda.
[2] That is, [Demosthenes] 7, On Halonnesos. See, on this and on H. generally, OCD(4) p.652, s.v. "Hegesippus(1)".
[3] Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 7.279D (7.9 Kaibel). The mistake is arguably less egregious than the equivalent one with Hegemon (see eta 53); nevertheless H. the poet of New Comedy is someone else. See generally OCD(4) p.652, s.v. "Hegesippus(2)"; Kassel-Austin, PCG 5.548-551.
