Word Order

S. Douglas Olson, Aristophanes' Clouds: A Commentary (Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, 2021), p. 100 (on line 258):
πάντας ταῦτα is a suggestion by the mid-18th-century German scholar Johann Jakob Reiske (primarily an Arabist) for the manuscripts’ flat πάντα ταῦτα (all witnesses but EK, which have πάντα ταῦτα, supporting the idea that that was the original word order).
For "flat πάντα ταῦτα" read "flat ταῦτα πάντα".
