		H informs that his original plan to edit Sophron afresh gave way in time to a decision to reprint, in a slightly abbreviated form, Kassel-Austin's text and critical apparatus as found in Poetae Comici Graeci I (previously, the fragments of Doric comedy could be read in Kaibel, Comicorum Graecorum fragmenta I.1, 1899).
		In the intervening sixty-odd years, the fragments have not greatly changed in number, from the 175 in Olivieri to the 172 in H, and the greatest differences between the two editions are in the ordering (Olivieri was more confident in assigning uncertain fragments to known plays) and in the interpretation of individual words and expressions.
		The most important accretion to the Sophron corpus in the last hundred years was the publication of an Egyptian papyrus by Norsa and Vitelli in 1932, early enough to be included in Olivieri's second edition.

		The dialect of Sophron is the old Doric, interspersed with Sicilian peculiarities ; and it appears to have been chiefly as a specimen of the Doric dialect that the ancient grammarians made his works a particular object of study.
		Lastly, Aristotle ranks Sophron as among those who are to be considered poets, on account of their subject and style, in spite of the absence of metre.
		It is, however, certain that Sophron was closely imitated by Theocritus, and that the Idyls of the latter were, in many respects, developments of the mimes of the former.

		SOPHRON (2wcoj>), of Syracuse, the son of Agathocles and Damnasyllis, was the principal writer, and in one sense the inventor, of that species of composition called the Mime, (iujuos), which was one of the numerous varieties of the Dorian Comedy.
		The time at which Sophron flourished is loosely stated by Suidas as " the times of Xerxes and Euripides ;" but we have another evidence for his date in the statement that his son Xenarchus lived at the court of Dionysius I., during the Rhegian War (b.
		The short, broken, unconnected sentences, of which the extant passages of Sophron generally consist, containing a large number of short syllables, and mostly ending in trochees like the choliambic verses, produce the effect, described by the scholiast, of a sort of irregular halting rhythm (pvO/jLos /ceoAos).

	RE: Sophronidzo (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		While there is no doubt that when referring to women, "sophron" indicates sexually chastity, as in Titus 2:5, "sophronas, agnas...," it seems to me that in Titus 2:4 the verb "sophronidzo" involves the idea of chastening, or admonishing.
		It is the elder women (presbutidas) who are to do this chastening (vs. 3) and the younger women (neas) who are to receive it (vs. 4).
		To sum up, "sophron" in Titus 2:5 is referring to chastity, whereas "sophronidzo" seems more to have the idea of discipline; it is a broader word that can encompass several aspects of a young woman's behavior, and would not be strickly limited to sexual chastity.

		Furthermore, the characterization of the hetaira in judicial oratory is opposite to the classical image of the sophron gunê.
		In addition to providing sex to anyone who can pay, the hetaira is a drain on a man's oikos on account of her extravagance, she is arrogant and impious, and excessive in her behaviour.
		In contrast, the sophron gunê is chaste, faithful, dutiful, obedient, modest and a productive member of her household (North 1977).

		It is Odysseus who exemplifies sophron, that hard-to-translate Greek word that does not just mean wisdom, shrewdness, gutsiness, grace, or persistence, but rather all of these - in essence, knowing how to act in any given situation.

		Plato, sophron and ironist, as well as brilliant defender of the faith in universal intelligence, deals with Pandora's sad legacy and offers, e.g., in the GORGIAS and the REPUBLIC antidotes to the tyranny of excess, insatiability and a host of pathologies we today classify as ideational obsessions and behavioral compulsions.
		It is an irony of intellectual history that Platonism and the Neo-Platonic legacy's 'retro' take on Plato frequently exhibit symptoms of ideational possession and contribute to the very state of cultural affairs his verbal therapy aimed to prevent.
		The sophron's timeless and ubiquitous embodiment is brilliant Odysseus in the ILIAD and ODYSSEY.

		For example, it was not sophron (σώφρον) for Diomedes to challenge the gods during the Trojan War because when he returned home he found that one of them (Aphrodite) had "loosened the limbs" (1) of his wife with such passion that she could not help cheating on the husband she loved.
		Just as it was not sophron for the satyr Marsyas to challenge Apollo to a musical contest: Apollo won, of course, and then proceeded to flay the impudent satyr to death.
		In other words, it is sophron to not overreach, to accept your lot, and -- more than anything else -- to not try to be something you're not, but to strive to be the best that your nature and station in life will allow (2).

		A substantial introduction furnishes an overview of the biographical evidence, and discusses the vexed question of audience and performance, arguing that the mimes were essentially symposiac entertainment rather than stage performances.
		There is detailed discussion of Sophron's dialect and lexicon, the textual tradition, and his impact on post-classical literature.

		There is another art which imitates by means of language alone, and that either in prose or verse- which verse, again, may either combine different meters or consist of but one kind- but this has hitherto been without a name.
		For there is no common term we could apply to the mimes of Sophron and Xenarchus and the Socratic dialogues on the one hand; and, on the other, to poetic imitations in iambic, elegiac, or any similar meter.
		People do, indeed, add the word 'maker' or 'poet' to the name of the meter, and speak of elegiac poets, or epic (that is, hexameter) poets, as if it were not the imitation that makes the poet, but the verse that entitles them all to the name.
