πάμψυχος
ὥσπερ γὰρ ζώου τῶν ὄψεων ἀφαιρεθεισῶν ἀχρειοῦται τὸ ὅλον, οὕτως ἐξ ἱστορίας ἀναιρεθείσης τῆς ἀληθείας τὸ καταλειπόμενον αὐτῆς ἀνωφελὲς γίνεται διήγημα → for just as a living creature which has lost its eyesight is wholly incapacitated, so if history is stripped of her truth all that is left is but an idle tale | for, just as closed eyes make the rest of an animal useless, what is left from a history blind to the truth is just a pointless tale
English (LSJ)
ον, (ψυχή)
A in full life, π. ἀνάσσει, of Amphiaraus, S.El.841 (lyr., also expld. by Sch. as 'ruling over all the shades' or 'immortal', = πασῶν ψυχῶν ἀνάσσει, cf. Od.11.483sq., A. Ch.355).
German (Pape)
[Seite 455] ganz beseelt, durchaus lebend; Soph. El. 831 heißt es vom Amphiaraos ὑπὸ γαίας πάμψυχος ἀνάσσει, was einige alte Erkl. durch ἀθάνατος erkl., Andere πασῶν ψυχῶν ἀνάσσει, αἳ δὴ ἐν χρείᾳ καθεστᾶσι τῆς ἐκείνου μαντικῆς, was Hermann billigt; nicht so einfach ist »er herrscht in voller Lebenskraft«, Gegensatz zum Halbleben der andern Schatten in der Unterwelt, Passow.
Greek (Liddell-Scott)
πάμψῡχος: -ον, (ψυχὴ) ἐν Σοφ. Ἠλ. 841, π. ἀνάσσει κατὰ τὸν Σχολ., = πασῶν ψυχῶν ἀνάσσει, πρβλ. Ὀδ. Λ. 483 κἑξ., Αἰσχύλ. Χο. 355.
