With the exception of manuscripts and texts of Abelard, the complete bibliographical information for each of the works cited may be found in the list of references at the end of this volume. In the case of manuscripts, full details are given in the notes of particular chapters. In the case of Abelard’s works, full details are given in the list of his writings in the appendix at the end of the volume.
Primary sources are cited in as abbreviated a form as will allow readers to locate passages readily in the original Latin and (where available) English translations. Such references are often given as in-text citations to standard internal divisions of primary sources, but where a more precise location is needed – as in the case of most references to Abelard – page and line numbers of the relevant Latin edition are also included. All other references are given (in chapter notes) by author and date. (NB: references to the English translations of Abelard in Spade 1994 and 1995, which are included wherever possible, are given by paragraph rather than by page number throughout.)
