Greek and Latin are cited from the Oxford Classical Texts where not otherwise specified, or other scholarly editions or compilations where specified. A widely available resource for Greek and Latin texts and translations is the online library of Greek and Latin literature at www.perseus.tufts.edu. Capitalization in Latin titles in this book follows English rather than Latin conventions.
References to primary sources use the standard Greek and Latin numbering systems common to most editions and translations of a given work (these vary greatly for different ancient authors, so that Euripides, for example, is cited by line numbers; Plato and Aristotle by ‘Stephanus’ and ‘Bekker’ numbers respectively, both of which take the form of a number followed by a letter; and Herodotus by book and section number). Certain modern editions also have their own conventions (so West’s collection of archaic poetry organizes fragments into sections by ancient author, within which they are then cited by fragment number only).
In cases where only a single work of an ancient author is widely cited, no title is given; this is the case for Herodotus, Thucydides and Polybius, for example, all of whom are cited by abbreviation (Hdt., Thuc., Polyb. respectively) and section numbers, or, where it is clear which author’s work is meant, by section numbers alone.
