ἀτέων
Τὸ νικᾶν αὐτὸν αὑτὸν πασῶν νικῶν πρώτη τε καὶ ἀρίστη. Τὸ δὲ ἡττᾶσθαι αὐτὸν ὑφ' ἑαυτοῦ πάντων αἴσχιστόν τε ἅμα καὶ κάκιστον. → Τo conquer yourself is the first and best victory of all, while to be conquered by yourself is of all the most shameful as well as evil
Russian (Dvoretsky)
ἀτέων: οντος (ᾰ) безумный, помешанный Hom., Her.
Frisk Etymological English
Grammatical information: ptc.
Meaning: unknown, appr. mad (Il.)
Other forms: ἀτέει (Call. fr. 633)
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: Connection with ἄτη (Bechtel, Lex.) seems impossible because there the ἀ- is long; one proposes to solve this problem by reading Υ 332 ἀτέοντα with synizesis (or even ἀ(Ϝ)α-τέοντα).
Frisk Etymology German
ἀτέων: {atéōn}
Grammar: isoliertes Ptz. (Υ 332, Hdt. 7, 223, Kall. Fr. 537).
Etymology : Von Bechtel Lex. zu ἄτη gezogen (vgl. Schwyzer 705 : 3) und mit verblendet, tollkühn od. ähnl. wiedergegeben. Dann ist Υ 332 ἀ̄τέοντα mit Synizese oder sogar ἀ(ϝ)ατέοντα zu lesen, s. v. Blumenthal Herm. 75, 427f. — Ältere Hypothesen bei Bq.
