αὔτως

αὔτως, Adv.:

• • I in this very manner, even so, γυμνὸν ἐόντα αὔ. ὥς τε γυναῖκα unarmed just as I am like a woman, Il. 22.125; in the self-same way, likewise, σὺν δʼ αὔ. ἐγώ S. Ant. 85, cf. Numen. ap. Ath. 7.328d; αὔ. ὅπωσπερ . . S. Aj. 1179; αὔ., ὧδʼ αὔ., ὥς μʼ ὤλεσεν Id. Tr. 1040 (lyr.); αὔ. ὡς . . Hes. Th. 702, A.R. 1.90: c. dat., γυναιξὶν αὔ. Anacr. 21.14: hence ὡσαύτως (q. v.), in Hom. always ὡς δʼ αὔτως, as in Pl. Phd. 102e, X. An. 5.6.9.
  • • 2 in a contemptuous sense, just so, τίη σὺ κήδεαι αὔ. ἀνδρῶν; why take you no better care? v.l. for οὕτως in Il. 6.55; οἴχεται αὔ. has gone off just as he pleased, Od. 4.665: joined with words implying contempt, νήπιος αὔ. a mere child, Il. 24.726, cf. 6.400; μὰψ αὔ. 20.348; ἀνεμώλιον αὔ. 21.474; αὔ. ἄχθος ἀρούρης Od. 20.379, etc.; so, in vain, οὐκ αὔ. μυθήσομαι 14.151, cf. Il. 2.342, etc.
  • II in reference to the past, just as before, as it was, ἧσθαι, κεῖσθαι, Il. 1.133, 18.338, Od. 20.130; λευκὸν ἔτʼ αὔ. still white as when new, Il. 23.268; ἔτι κεῖται αὔ. ἐν κλισίῃσι just as he was, 24.413; καὶ αὔ. still, unceasingly, 1.520. (From αὐτός, hence αὔτως in Homer, cf. Il. 23.268, Od. 14.151 (from αὕτη with Aeol. psilosis acc. to Eust. 235.5, al.); but αὕτως is usu. written in codd. of Trag. Gramm. were divided as to etym. and accent, cf. A.D. Adv. 174.1, EM 172.34, and distd. αὕτως ‘likewise’ from αὔτως ‘in vain’. Dam. Pr. 178 uses αὕτως, = of itself (from αὑτοῦ).)

αὔτως, adv. von αὐτός, mit äolischer Betonung, s. Hermann zum Viger. 735f ; man unterscheidet αὔτως, »vergebens«, von αὕτως, »so« ; vgl. Buttmann Lexil. 1.35 ff ; Bekker schreibt im Homer überall αὔτως, mit spirit. len., s. Il. 1.133, 520, 2.138, 342, 3.220, 339, 5.255, 6.400, 7.100, 430, 9.195, 599, 10.25, 50, 11.388, 13.104, 14.18, 15.128, 513, 16.117, 17.143, 450, 633, 18.198, 338, 584 (Zenodot οὕτως, Aristarch αὔτως, Scholl. Aristonic., s. Friedlaender). 20.348, 21.474, 22.125, 484, 23.74, 268, 621, 24.413, 726, Od. 3.64, 4.665, 6.143, 166, 9.31, 12.284, 13.281, 336, 14.151, 15.83, 16.111, 143, 313, 17.309, 20.130, 238, 379, 21.203, 225, 22.114, 24.409 ; v.l. Il. 4.17 (Bekker εἰ δʼ αὖ πως τόδε πᾶσι φίλον καὶ ἡδὺ γένοιτο). 6.55 (Bekker τίη δὲ σὺ κήδεαι οὕτως ἀνδρῶν). 13.447 (Bekker ἐπεὶ σύ περ εὔχεαι οὕτως). 21.106 (Bekker τίη ὀλοφύρεαι οὕτως) Od. 10.281 (Bekker πῇ δʼ αὖτʼ, ὦ δύστηνε, διʼ ἄκριας ἔρχεαι οἶος).
1) ebenso, gerade so, Il. 22.125 αὔτως ὥς τε γυναῖκα – κτενέει ; vgl. αὔτως ὡς ὅτε Hes. Th. 702 ; Theogn. 1249 ; Soph. Ant. 85, O.R. 931 u. öfter ; γυναιξὶν αὔτως Anacr. 66.22. In Prosa ist dafür ὡσαύτως im Gebrauch ; bei Hom. ἃς δʼ αὔτως. Od. 9.31 ; bei den Att. einzeln ὧδʼ αὔτως, Soph. Tr. 1029.
2) eben noch so, in Beziehung auf einen vergangenen Zustand, κείσεαι αὔτως Il. 18.338, wo sich die Bdtg »ohne daß Jemand sich um dich bekümmerte« anschließt, wie αὔτως κεῖται ἀκηδής Od. 20.130 ; λευκὸν ἔτʼ αὔτως, noch so weiß wie sonst, Il. 23.268 ; ἔτι κεῖνος κεῖται αὔτως, die Leiche liegt noch so wie sonst da, d.i. unverwest, 24.413.
3) in Beziehung auf den gegenwärtigen Zustand, gleich so, wie ich gerade bin, ἀλλὰ καὶ αὔτως ἀντίον εἶμʼ αὐτῶν Il. 5.255 ; ἀλλʼ αὔτως ἐπὶ τάφρον ἰών, wie du bist, ohne Waffen, 18.198 ; καὶ αὔτως, auch so schon, auch ohne diese Umstände, 1.520 ; vgl. 9.599. Vgl. Theocr. 2.133, 3.30. Dah.
4) so, ohne Weiteres, δίδωμι δέ τοι τόδʼ ἄεθλον αὔτως· οὐ γὰρ πύξ γε μαχήσεαι Il. 23.621 ; dah. »schlechtweg«, οὐκ αὔτως μυθήσομαι, ἀλλὰ σὺν ὅρκῳ Od. 14.151 ; ἀλλʼ αὔτως ἄχθος ἀρούρης 20.379, nur so eine Last der Erde. Hieraus fließen die Bdtgn :
   a) unbedacht, leichtsinnig, αὔτως ἐριδαίνομεν Il. 2.342.
   b) vergeblich, umsonst, ἦ νύ τοι αὔτως οὔατʼ ἀκουέμεν ἔστι Il. 15.128 ; Αἴας πῆλʼ αὔτως ἐν χειρὶ κόλον δόρυ 16.117 ; ἦ σʼ αὔτως κλέος ἐσθλὸν ἔχει φύξηλιν ἐόντα 17.143. Hom. vrbdt damit Wörter, in denen schon der Begriff des Vergeblichen, Törichten liegt, μὰψ αὔτως Il. 20.348, ἀνεμώλιον αὔτως 21.474, νήπιος αὔτως 22.484, ἄφρονά τʼ αὔτως 3.220.
Bei späteren Epikern finden sich noch einzelne Spuren desselben Gebrauchs, λεπτὴ ὁρμιή – ἄπλοκος αὔτως Opp. Hal. 3.469, ohne weiteres, ungeflochten ; εἴκαθον αὔτως, ohne weiteres, von selbst, Ap.Rh. 2.790 ; ὅπλα αὔτως γανόωντα, vergeblich, Mel. 115 (VI.163). – Auch Luc. Pseudol. 3 sagt μὴ προεκχέῃς αὔτως, wo Schol erkl. ματαίως.

    Idly, thoughtlessly, lightly: σῖτον ἔδοντας μὰψ αὐ. Od. 16.111.

αὔτως (αὐτός): in the same way, just as it is, merely, in vain; a word admitting great variety of paraphrase, but in signification always answering to some force of αὐτός. γυμνὸν ἐόντα| αὔτως ὥς τε γυναῖκα, all unarmed, ‘exactly’ like a woman, Il. 22.125; ἄπυρον λέβητα, λευκὸν ἔτʼ αὔτως, still ‘quite’ bright, Il. 23.268; ὀκνείω δʼ ἵππων ἐπιβαίνεμεν, ἀλλὰ καὶ αὔτως| ἀντίον εἶμʼ αὐτῶν, ‘just as I am,’ Il. 5.256; ἣ δὲ καὶ αὔτως μʼ αἰὲν νεικεῖ, even ‘as it is,’ i. e. without special provocation, Il. 1.520; ἀλλʼ αὔτως ἄχθος ἀρούρης, a ‘mere’ burden to the ground, Od. 20.379; αὔτως γάρ ἐπέεσσʼ ἐριδαίνομεν, ‘just as we do,’ i. e. to no purpose, Il. 2.342.
