Thanks to a survey of the usual practices of quotation employed in Hesychius’ Lexicon, this paper shows that Hesiod’s name in Hesych. α 7017 Latte = Hesiod fr. sp. 396 Merkelbach–West is not necessarily to be considered corrupt – as the editors both of Hesychius and Hesiod have generally believed. Accordingly, the paper suggests briefly (and with all the due caution) two possible new interpretations of this Hesiodic fragment.

After a brief introduction on the shadowy epic poet Pisander of Kameiros and his poem on
Heracles, this paper analyzes Pisand. fr. 11 Bernabé – a fragment about Heracles’ gift to Telamon
after the first sack of Ilion. Through an examination of its content, and a comparison
with other literary and artistic sources, I argue that this fragment implies a hitherto unnoticed
‘local’ (perhaps Rhodian) variant of the genealogy of Telamon’s son Teucer as opposed to the
canonical one (first plainly attested in Soph. Ai. 1299-1303). This variant can be considered a
further sign of the ‘epichoric’ nature of Pisander’s lost poem.

A lexicographical entry from the Suidas Lexicon preserves a poetic adespoton, which consists of an unnoticed epitheton of the goddess Artemis. Its meaning suggests an allusion to the mythical story of the Calydonian Boar.
