Dr. Carole Sargent, director of Scholarly and Literary Publications at Georgetown, has supported this work in many ways. My gratitude to Artemis Kirk, Georgetown University librarian, and to her splendid staff is equally immense. The wisdom and example of my great friends Casey, Jerome, and, especially, Horatio have been indispensable.
