Transcriber’s Note
There was no opening half-title in the source used to prepare this text.
No attempt was made to check the validity of each index entry’s references, however several of them seem spurious:
“Antimachus” is referred to a note on p. 20, but it is unclear which note that may be. He is mentioned by name on the page itself.
“Mimes, the prose Greek”, is not mentioned either in a note on p. 21, nor on p. 22 itself.
“Plato” is not mentioned in any note on p. 145.
Notes
49.20: The word ‘curial’ on p. 49 (“a curial instance of that commentatorial lues...”) seems odd. ‘Crucial’ may have been intended, but seems more likely to have been ‘curious’.
