When in 1939 Friedrich Klingnerâ¤s new edition of Horatius, published in the â¤?Bibliotheca Teubneriana⤠deposed the hitherto authoritative text edited by Vollmer, this had an epoch-making effect on both teaching and research. Klingnerâ¤s text held a leading position internationally over many decades. Klingnerâ¤s edition was a keystone in particular for students of Latin in the tradition of German grammar schools and universities. Even today, scholars continually have recourse to Klingnerâ¤s constitution of the text. Following numerous enquiries from customers, the publishers have decided to re-issue Klingnerâ¤s Horatius text as an unrevised reprint of the 3rd edition from 1959.
