Summary:In this note is proposed a new explanation of two Greek comic fragments: Callias fr. 18 K.-A. (from Pedetai) containing a possible reference to the poet's nickname "Schoinion," and Theopompus Comicus fr. 64 K.-A. probably coming from a paraklausithyron-scene./Nouvelle interprétation de deux fragments de comédies grecques. D'abord, le fragment 18 K.-A. de Callias (de Pedetai) peut faire référence au surnom du poète, "Schoinion." Puis, le fragment 64 K.-A. de l'auteur de comédies Théopompe est probablement un passage de scène de lamentations auprès d'une porte fermée (paraklausithyron).
