This article offers a text-critical and exegetical re-examination of some fragments of Posidonius on moral corruption and virtue (Sen. Ep. 90, 6 = Posidon. F 284 EK = F 448 Th; D.L. VII 91 = Posidon. F 29 EK = F 403 Th; D.L. VII 91 = Posidon. F 2 EK = 435b Th), as well as of other related texts (Verg. Aen . VIII 313-328; Strab. XVI 2, 35-39 = Posidon. F 133 Th; Sen. Ep. 89, 8). The author sheds new light on Posidonius’s conception of the golden age (which can be reconstructed starting from Seneca’s epistle 90) and on the text of Strab.

Abstract
This article offers a text-critical and exegetical re-examination of some fragments of Posidonius on moral corruption and virtue (Sen. Ep. 90, 6 = Posidon. F 284 EK = F 448 Th; D.L. VII 91 = Posidon. F 29 EK = F 403 Th; D.L. VII 91 = Posidon. F 2 EK = 435b Th), as well as of other related texts (Verg. Aen . VIII 313-328; Strab. XVI 2, 35-39 = Posidon. F 133 Th; Sen. Ep. 89, 8). The author sheds new light on Posidonius’s conception of the golden age (which can be reconstructed starting from Seneca’s epistle 90) and on the text of Strab. XVI 2, 35-39; proposes a new interpretation of Posidon. F 29 EK and an emendation to Posidon. F 2 EK; notices for the first time the Posidonian background of Sen. Ep. 89, 8.
