This article proposes a new textual reconstruction of Aesch. fr. 90 and the first line of fr. dub. 466 R.2, both attributed to Aeschylus by Stobaeus, based on the evidence provided by the socalled Greek-Coptic redaction of the Sententiae ascribed to Menander. By interpreting the vox nihili αισχυνου as a corruption of the lemma Αἰσχύλου, the article shows that this latter text should be considered as an independent witness of Aeschylus’ line. 

Keywords: Aeschylus, Stobaeus, Greek-Coptic redaction, Menadri Sententiae, indirect-tradition.
