Probably the same Hierax mentioned in DGRBM

[edit]

This DGRBM article mentions a Hierax who wrote a work "On Justice" which is quoted in a gnomology. A lot of medieval Greek gnomologies derive from Stobaeus or a common source so it's probably the same philosopher, but this should probably be verified first by checking that the quoted excerpt in the gnomology is also in Stobaeus before adding it to the article.

Here is apparently a scan of the gnomology referenced by DGRBM, but its 600 pages and there's no index. I suspect this will remain a mystery for some time. Psychastes (talk) 06:48, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
